Well, I'm not sure who moved the tx_disable outside of the
conditional. It is not needed. We only need to disable TX on
the slowpath (the first branch of the if condition). It does not
hurt to disable it always, though.
But I will send a new patch against wireless-2.6, which only disables
TX for the slowpath and fakes a TX there.

But for Greg, the original patch is ok.
How was the stable mailing list again? stable-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org seems to bounce.
