It may still be touch-and-go; someone else said reversing this patch did
not fix the problem on their machine--so you'll have to try it and
see. It definitely works for me on my nw8240.

I don't know anything about dealing with the patch on ubuntu in
particular, but assuming that you can build the kernel, all you need to
do is go and manually change the relevant line of code and then rebuild
your kernel (or just the relevant module).

Good luck!
