If you plan to NEVER EVER reset your Device again, than thats the safest way.
But i think nobody here think of that. What i tried do describe yesterday:
I think you have three options:
A) Do nothing, hold the firmware. But with the risk, that there maybe comes another update from apple before the next jailbreak is ready. in that case you have to wait another jailbreak longer.
B) you update/downgrade, and use the benefits of the situation without waiting
C) It fails.. you aren't able to able the jailbreak.. but in that case you only have to wait until the one from pod2g is out (wich is much short than option A)
Another option is to wait a few days, hoping that apple not release an new version durning the next days.

Only if any of the changes from 5.1 to 5.1.1 are important for you. Otherwise do nothing and keep 5.1 until a jailbreak comes. And hurry up so save shsh ^^

Try to save shsh/restore to iOS 5.1 before. TinyUmbrella still catch shsh for 5.1.0, maybe they still sign it? Or it is a bug i dont know

After a night full of "Restore failed" on Windows...
...i successful restored my iPad 2 3G from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 within the first try on 10.7.3 :)
Again thanks :)

Done :)
Lost the motivation to go on, thats why i changed to mac, restored again 5.1.1, turned off mobile data, removed the sim card and entered dfu. Than selected 5.0.1 and 5.1.1and some shsh blobs for 5.0.1 i saved someday with tinyumbrella. And it worked.
At some point at the beginning he waited to long for my ipad. at the same time "initDevice failed" appears in console. While redsn0w keept searching i klicked on itunes. 1 second later redsn0w found my ipad and moved on. after the next restart i closed itunes because it started to raise messages if i wish to restore the ipad.

imho you can use redsn0w to backup the _version on your phone_, theres the option "fetch" with fetches the shsh's from A4 Devices in pwned DFU. And another one to submit them. Not a bad idea if your currently on 5.0.1, if you're not sure if your're files are valid.. and for a "just in case" its under ~5 min to get them to cydia.

if you (or cydia) saved shsh then you can use this version of redsn0w, otherwise you failed. But all this is answered on google durnong the comments below

Like i said, i asume the error is raised by something different, itunes always raise error no matter what i do^^ most people know what i mean. i restored 5.1.1 without any error and try again after a reboot.
but you are on ios 4? why waiting? based on pod2g's twitter the jailbreak is still some weeks away but theoretical working on 5.1.1.. if apple release a fix before the jailbreak is released and you are still on ios 4.x, you cant use the exploit
