Yes, that's what I meant. :-)

Well if it's useful for one driver I suppose it's still an improvement.
The patch I am considering would do this in the rt61pci driver:

--- rt2x00.orig/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt61pci.c
+++ rt2x00/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt61pci.c

Does this also work for you?

Ben.
