I just applied the patch to the 2.6.29.4 kernel and its complaining when I recompile that wext.c still has two calls to the "log" structure present (must have been inserted after your branch): 

priv->wstats.discard.code = le32_to_cpu(log.wepundecryptable);
priv->wstats.discard.misc = le32_to_cpu(log.ackfailure);

Do you happen to know what I can change these to? 

Thank you, Brian.
