These patches already exist in Linville's wireless-testing tree, from 
which linux-backports-modules-2.6.31 is packaged. Is this not 
sufficient? I did add the iwlwifi-1000-ucode-128.50.3.1 to the LBM 
package, even though it is also being installed from the Karmic 
linux-firmware package.

While these patches are straightforward, they are also quite extensive 
for this late in the release cycle. With these patches I anticipate that 
any stable updates to the iwlwifi drivers will conflict, making 
maintenance more difficult then necessary.
