 Hi,
 I compiled new GENERIC kernel with patch you provided. My laptop booted
 without problem. Kernel seems OK.
 My first findings and improvements:
 - Before, "ifconfig iwm0 list scan" wasn't work and gives an error
 message. Now, list scan still doesn't work, doesn't give error, but adds to
 dmesg "iwm0: fatal firmware error" message.
 - Before, wpa_supplicant were associate with ~1 min or more latency. Now
 association is in ~5 sec.
 - iwm connects to network without problem.
 Thanks,
 Mustafa
