Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 reproduced here too, interesting is, that i has been only able to
 reproduce it - yet - on non-SMP and SLUB kernel. I have tested two kernels
 yet, one optimized for i486, SLUB, no-SMP, the second optimized for Core
 Duo, SLAB, SMP enabled. Second one had no problem either on Core Duo HW
 and on Sempron 64 box, the first one crashed on both on wlanconfig
 destroy, also on ifconfig down and even randomly. Trace follows :
