What kind of proof do you expect?

I've added BUG into ether_addr_copy (on unaligned addresses) and did some basic 
networking tests (pings using WPA2/CCMP AP). Of course I haven't done 100% coverage 
test to driver.

Additionally I manually analyzed code (although human errors are possible).

Do you want me to run some static analyzer as well? Or are this two enough 
(just add them to changelog).
