It's not trivial to fix this warning, but I also strongly doubt it will
do anything to help your wifi card.  If your wifi card works at all (gets
interrupts, etc.), then worrying about ALKD is just a red herring.  You
might ask on mob...@freebsd.org about debugging your wifi issues.

As far as suspend and resume, resume is not very easy to debug when it
doesn't work.  Does your screen come back at all if you resume or does it
just stay black?
