Subject: AR5008 "Failed to stop TX DMA"

Hello!
I use "Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter
(rev 01)" PCI card.
The following messages appear in my console approx. once in a minute.

cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
ath: phy0: Failed to stop TX DMA, queues=0x001!

The connection to WPA access point works, although SSH freezes
regulary for several seconds.

I'm running an x86_64 kernel version 3.10.2. But earlier versions had
the same problem too.
Please, help me to fix that.
