It's early in ieee80211_rx_napi: sband = local->hw.wiphy->bands[status->band]; if (WARN_ON(!sband)) goto drop; I could not easily find a scenario under which status->band would not be set properly by the driver, so my guess is there is some nasty memory corruption going on. FWIW, I've received several reports like this from different people on different devices. They're also confirming that reverting to the snapshot from January makes things stable again. - Felix
