Your subject is/was " ...linux 3.2-rcX iwlwifi driver's problem...",
now you are talking about iwlwifi.git.
Not sure what's the base of iwlwifi.git, but I guess it is wireless-testing?
BTW; what do you meant by 3.2-rcX, what is X? -rc1, -rc2...-rc6?
Which of those -rcX are affected?

More details are tracked into the bug, the kernel version one between
linus offical 3.2.0-rc5 and 3.2.0-rc6,
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2338

This kernel has been running on my Lenovo laptop more than 1 week with
no reboot (only suspend & resume),
and wifi roaming problems happened in office everyday,

[root@archtop ~]# modinfo iwlwifi
filename:      /lib/modules/3.2.0-rc5+/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko

Is it already in iwlwifi.git? I'm gonna test it when I'm in office,
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.git

Now I'm asking if the patch mentioned in your above link is already in
iwl git tree,
since it's Intel's offical tree for iwlwifi, I'm gonna clone a latest
tree and test it;

But you're using a googlemail, now I'm not sure if you're working in
that Intel iwl team...
