If I read the trace correctly, the accessed register is 0x111c, which is AR5K_QUEUE_DFS_MISC(7). If I remember correctly, queue 7 is the beacon queue. Access to this register should never fail unless the hardware is in sleep mode, or there is some other PCI related issue. Unfortunately, this issue might be caused by something entirely different that is not visible in the stack trace. I have observed that messing up the internal state of a PCI card can trigger an error that only shows up much later and thus can only be found by doing a thorough code review or by analyzing PCI traces.
