Just did the same for my WLMi4001.

Hmm. I've yet to see this problem, but I'll be careful (and save
often) for a while.

I remember that when I first tried the patch with 2.6.16 I got a
kernel crash once in the beginning, but never since.

(I'd really hope someone with more kernel expertise would stand up and
help a hand with this patch.)
