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?

The 3.5.y.z extended stable tree already contains this commit as well.
