This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled iwlwifi: dvm: don't send zeroed LQ cmd to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 1e57e7ccced68436eed153d51731eea879117e25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2013 09:47:00 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: dvm: don't send zeroed LQ cmd commit 63b77bf489881747c5118476918cc8c29378ee63 upstream. When the stations are being restored because of unassoc RXON, the LQ cmd may not have been initialized because it is initialized only after association. Sending zeroed LQ_CMD makes the fw unhappy: it raises SYSASSERT_2078.
