I tried to do an apport and it seg-faulted in the middle of it. However
a few days of researching and looking at the chipset datasheet specific
to my model and I found something useful.
The dmesg report complains about vendor request 0x07 which is a multiple
byte read in the specs, while the offset 0x3000 corresponds to the MAC
control register, specifically the ASIC version number.
As well, the fact that this bug has existed across releases, kernel
versions, and the transition to systemd points more to the driver than
anything else. I also tested wicd (currently using that now) and the
problem persists, which means network-manager isn't the primary source
of the bug. All of these can still be in play or making the problem
worse but aren't the sole cause.
If I can get sight into the drivers (both rt73 and rt2x00USB), I might
be able to pin down more specifics. For the actual bug fixers, I'd
advise to check and see if the non-USB version of this chipset shares
the problem to isolate the bug some more.
