penalvch, I apologize for the delay getting back to you.

A couple days' ago, I tried making the wireless backport code for 3.12,
but I immediately got several errors in the C compilation.  I am sorry,
but I can't give you the errors right now as I'm at work, but I remember
they were to do with a set of undeclared #define's...?  I'm being vague
here, and I'll get you a listing of the errors later on.

Because i could not build the backport, I did as Roman has done here and
upgraded my 7260 firmware to 22.1.7.0.  The stability of my wifi
connection is much better now, and I have yet to experience another
crash in ieee80211_reconfig as I got before.

If you can help me fix the backport code,  I am happy to revert back to
the original firmware from 14.04, and then install the backport as you
suggested.  But I suspect the issue is with the 7260 firmware itself.

Note that I discovered this bug fix made a month ago to the firmware
driver to fix an interrupt issue in there:

fixes.git/commit/?id=6960a059b2c618f32fe549f13287b3d2278c09e9

It may be worth pointing developers at this link, so they are aware of
the bug fix.

Thanks again for all your help!!
