Ok. I assume this only happens when loosing the connection and trying
to re-associate. At least that is the only possible scenario I can
think of where a timeout for mgmt frames is involved. Probably we
aren't bumping a refcount correctly or something. Actually that sounds
rather plausible as it panics exactly when trying to access ni which
should, for a station, always point to iv_bss, which can in turn be
free'd almost unconditionally if someone's telling net80211 to
associate to another (or even the same) network. Hmm.. tracing refcount
it is.

Were you running wpa_supplicant at that point? Any messages before
the panic happened?
