Steve langasek, as per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an
update is available for your BIOS (1.40). If you update to this, does it
change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  8086:422b [Lenovo ThinkPad ThinkPad X201] unreliability with Centrino
  Ultimate-N 6300 wireless connection, 802.11n

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My laptop has been experiencing occasional drops from the 802.11n
  wireless with the current kernel.  When this happens, the card cannot
  see any ESSIDs and spews the error "Request scan called when driver
  not ready."  If I try to unload and reload the module, I get an
  "unable to init EEPROM" error.

  Kernel log snippet follows below.  The modprobe -r/modprobe happens at 13:25:39.  Rebooting clears the error:
