For the kernel panic, I'm sure there is something changed in the code in wlhdd that does make it work. The fact it does hang at ide probe is probably a hidden patch in the kernel that avoid this in asus firmware.

I'm trying to file compare both linux subfolders to try to get something, and also to use wl hdd .config file on your version but it doesn't boot up.

I'm going to wait for your work and maybe help to find the cause of the kernel panic?
Well, I've already diffed the kernels and there is only one relevant part, that was changed. I've not tried to do exactly like ASUS has done this, probably I will try this tonight.
