well, this particular WARN_ON can probably be fixed by reverting the following patch:
"p54: call p54_wake_free_queues on every p54_free_skb and p54_rx_frame_sent"

however, based on Max commit description this patch is necessary for p54spi to
work properly. So, I'm not going to touch it...

The best thing he can do now is to use compat-wireless.
(Or since he uses a -rc kernel anyway, why not wireless-testing?)
wireless-testing/cw does not only have a newer driver,
but also mac80211 improvements for power-saving clients.

[Larry Finger]

Christian and Johannes,

A dongle running p54usb gets a "tx refused but queue active" WARNING
when used as an AP using hostapd and running 2.6.31-rc6 from Linus's
tree, even with my patch that fixed this problem in STA mode.
Christian, have you tested this configuration? Johannes - any thoughts?

I'm trying to reproduce the problem.

Larry

I'm using p54usb dongle with hostapd to share my Internet connection.
After
client connects with station and start browsing/downloading it takes
0.5 - 1min
and suddenly network sharing stops working. The only error message
comes from
dmesg and it is the error mentioned before. System load was from 0.10
to 0.30
max.
