Subject: Re: kernel 3.5.2/amd64: iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: failed to allocate pci memory

Howdy,

I currently rmmod iwlwifi before putting my laptop to sleep and reload it 
when coming back. Arguably, it's maybe not needed, but from time to time
I hit this memory allocation failure below.

I realize it's likely a memory fragmentation problem, but I have 8GB and
plenty of 'free' space, so I'm hoping that somehow it can be defragmented
enough for module loading ot work?

My kenrel config options are here
http://marc.merlins.org/tmp/config-3.5.2-amd64-preempt-noide-20120731

and this happens on an Lenovo T530

when it works:

It will typically fix itself and work again later.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
