0) It's one year later now and this Microcode SW error again showed up
in the logs. I recently upgraded and I haven't kept any logs, but my
guess would be that I have run into that error once every week. (This
laptop is now running a v3.5.3 based kernel as shipped for Fedora 17.)

1) Would you have any suggestions how to pinpoint the cause of this
error? It is mainly annoying, and I managed to ignore it since my
previous message, but I still would like to free the logs from the noise
it makes.
0) I ported the "iwlegacy_tracing" patch from
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42766 to v3.6-rc7 and to
iwl4965. I've been running iwl4965 with tracing enabled ever since (that
is on: v3.6-rc7, v3.6, v3.6.1, and v3.6.2). Finally, after only three
weeks I hit our Microcode SW error again.

1) So now I've got a 600+k line (or 65 MB) trace dump. What should I do
with it?
