The screenshots with instrumented modules seem to indicate that the hang is occurring sometimes while iwl3945 is initializing, and other times after it is finished initializing. This hints that something else happening in parallel is triggering the hang. -- [regression] 2.6.27-7 sometimes fails

I think there is some weird racy stuff going on with rf-kill. In the i3945 init code you can see that it disables the PCI device right before it registers the rf-kill handler. This doesn't prevent the handler from being called which looks like it might access the device, even though its disabled.
