Hello!
A while ago I had a situation where my AR9485 would lock up the kernel
so bad and two very nice guys(Mohammed Shafi and Adrian.. Uhm.. Sorry I
forgot his last name) were very patient in helping me and trying to
debug it through patches, etc. Nothing worked.
Eventually, though, I noticed that when I removed the atl1c module my
wlan started working. "Awesome!" I thought... Until I noticed this other
problem.

Once in a while, seemingly at random, the wlan dies with the error
messages in the title. And I can't possibly restore it without
restarting the computer.

With this message I have attached a log with the error messages.
This has been a problem since.. Uhm.. Kernel 3.2.something and I'm
currently running 3.2.8.
For some reason it happened at least 3-4 times shortly after each other
today - so I thought I might ask on here what's happening.
