OK, finally I got it. After 3 days of hardcore intelligent bisecting
        I've found out that tethering in 3.5 works for me if I revert
these 2
        patches:
        
            56138f5 iwlwifi: dont pull too much payload in skb head
I got back to this for a customer running 3.5, and after many failed
attempts realized that you have to have iptables for this problem to
actually happen. I reverse-bisected that the *fix* is
6caab7b0544e83e6c160b5e80f5a4a7dd69545c7, in 3.7.

Is there still any stable kernel 3.5/3.6 (or possibly before, though for
iwlwifi before doesn't matter) that this should be applied to?
I've checked all of 3.0.x, 3.2.x, 3.4.x, and 3.8.x   They all have this
patch applied.

Those are the official stable kernels, everything else is outside of my
realm.
