Ok, thanks for the explanation!

I thank you too for taking care of it, and now at least my wifi does not
die as before.

I uploaded the dmesg here

http://www.aei.mpg.de/~crmafra/dmesg-iwlwifi.txt

it contains the warnings including the first (not tainted), 
but the beginning of the log is missing because it was too big I guess.

But the boot messages are probably the same as the other dmesg
I've sent already in this thread.
