I applied this and radio_enable_2.6.20 to 2.6.20-rc5, and it seems to work great. No panics, associates, decent power, and so on. The only oddity is that the radio wouldn't turn on until I pressed the button. This is odd, because it's a soft button, not a hardware button. However, once pressed, everything worked fine.
