Hi Maxim,

I have tested here with the patches from wireless-2.6 plus this patch
in my series against 2.6.35-rc1:

# patch from <https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/103133/>
linux-wireless/2.6.34-mac80211-fix-blockack-req-processing.patch

Unfortunately, I have here no open AP and I am not in a real test mood :-).

I could not test "mac80211: process station blockack action frames
from work" [1] yet.
It is Cc: stable@kernel.org.

All mentionned patches apply cleanly against vanilla 2.6.35-rc1 (see
below, patches attached as tarball).
