Here is the patch against vanilla 2.6.19.

For Linus' latest tree I have sent also patches on netdev.

Users of my out-of-kernel git tree, should look at the branch rx.

[PATCH] zd1211rw: Call ieee80211_rx in tasklet

The driver called ieee80211_rx in hardware irq context. This
caused a problem withe crypto libraries and was against the
documentation/intention of the ieee80211_rx function. This patch
fixes that.
