The following upstream wireless fixes were found to be relevant to the 3.2.y (aka "stable") tree between 3.2.6 and 3.2.13. Since the wireless code in RHEL 6.3 is based upon the wireless code in 3.2.6, these fixes should be relevant for RHEL 6.3 mac80211: timeout a single frame in the rx reorder buffer ath9k: fix a WEP crypto related regression ath9k_hw: fix a RTS/CTS timeout regression ath9k_hw: prevent writes to const data on AR9160 iwlwifi: fix key removal ath9k: Fix kernel panic during driver initilization mac80211: Fix a rwlock bad magic bug mac80211: zero initialize count field in ieee80211_tx_rate ath9k: stop on rates with idx -1 in ath9k rate control's .tx_status rt2x00: fix random stalls iwl3945: fix possible il->txq NULL pointer dereference in delayed works Rather than wait for each individual bug to be discovered, reported, triaged, etc individually, I would prefer to simply include these fixes en masse.
