[Bug 200509] Re: iwl4965: Microcode SW error detected. Restarting 0x2000000

[Brett]

I just found another bug report on RedHat's website.  It actually had my
exact error code:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519154

Comment #10 suggests passing the option swcrypto=1 during module load. 
So, I did as comment #11 suggested:

echo option swcrypto=1 > /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf

So far, so good.  No errors.  I'll let ya'll know if that changes.
