After the kernel update to 3.19.0-30.33, I found that my wifi card wasn't working again. I decided to download the latest backports (2015/09/03 instead of 2015/07/31). When I went to apply the patches Diego mentioned, I found that the patches were already included in the backports, with one interesting difference.

Line 61 of pci.c now reads:

#define QCA6164_2_1_DEVICE_ID (0x0041)

instead of

#define QCA6174_2_1_DEVICE_ID (0x0041)

Does this mean that this card (168c:0041) is actually the QCA6164 and not the QCA6174, as the title of this bug states?
