Hi:

In current kernel:head, iwlwifi is almost useless in both of my home boxes, after loosing some hair, I found out that reverting patch:

commit f590dcec944552f9a4a61155810f3abd17d6465d Author: Emmanuel Grumbach Date: Mon Dec 31 09:26:10 2012 +0200

iwlwifi: fix the reclaimed packet tracking upon flush queue

There's a bug in the currently released firmware version, the sequence control in the Tx response isn't updated in all cases. Take it from the packet as a workaround.

Makes thing work again as described here https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/20/4

Will be cool if our kernels can revert this "fix" so I can unplug the cables here :-)

Your request would break all the systems that were helped by this patch. You need to report this on linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org with full documentation such as selected dmesg output, etc. so that a fix can be obtained for everyone.
