I'm not sure, libertas got some unaligned-access patches. To use 
the wireless-testing libertas source with 2.6.25.4 on my 
embedded device, I also needed the following two patches from 
Linus' 2.6.25

* 064106a91be5e76cb42c1ddf5d3871e3a1bd2a23
  kernel: add common infrastructure for unaligned access

* 6510d41954dc6a9c8b1dbca7eaca0f23195ca727
  kernel: Move arches to use common unaligned access

An other option would be to undo

* 533dd1b0be103b0ff11da71152877e1ba530f1c2
  wireless: use get/put_unaligned_* helpers
