Hi Wey-Yi,

I noticed from this bug report that the workaround is to disable
802.11n.  Is it not possible to instead force-stop all queues, restart
the firmware and driver similar to when uCode crashes?  This might
tide Rafal over for a little while.  It looks like he's not planning
to stop trolling every few days despite your giving the same answer
that the issue is out of your control.

Alternatively, Rafal, you might try to implement this type of fix.
