Subject: Warning in ath9k after update from 2.6.33.1 to 2.6.33.2

Since I upgraded from 2.6.33.1 to .2, I get the following warning
sometimes, related to wireless:

I does not find the issue on 2.6.34-rc3-wireless-next, using wext and trigger
a disassociation.

How do you reproduce the warning?

Thanks,

I think the problem is that the locking for sta_notify changed, and a
patch that was written for the new locking was backported to the old,
irq-disabled, locking.

I am not entirely sure. At first it only happened when disassociating
from the AP at work. The above trace actually appeared when associating
to my home AP.

I have no exact means of reproducing this, it "just happens" during
normal usage, but always during association or disassociation so far.
Sorry that I cannot be more precise.

Sorry, I don't know what that means.
