I've got a 3945, too. I switched to iwlwifi pretty much as soon as it was 
available. The only issue I've had with 1.2.22 is that the LED on the case 
doesn't do anything. With 1.1.x, there was some issue with the driver 
getting confused if it lost the access point's signal briefly and then got 
it back. One thing to watch out of is that it's a mac80211-based driver; 
you'll get an extra "master" interface that tends to confuse udev.
