Well so remember I did a clean git clone of wireless-testing and the
issue was still there, but I determined just now it seems rc8 from
Linus does indeed also have the issue. For some reason the issue was
not present on hpa's rc8 on linux-2.6-allstable. Will double check on
that again.

I ensured to diff configs them between builds :T
