Comment 27 for bug 1035889

I took a look at recent modifications to the iwlwifi driver and there was one commit that caught my attention:

50e2a30cf6fcaeb2d27360ba614dd169a10041c5 "iwlwifi: disable greenfield transmissions as a workaround"

This commit seems to be a workaround a bug on this driver that happens in some situations, when performing rate scaling.

I've built a test kernel containing a backport of this commit to the Precise kernel and uploaded it here:

Hossein, can you please try this kernel and see if it makes any difference? Thanks.
