Hi Johannes et al, When running my Centrino Wireless-N 130 BGN (rev 0xb0) card in nl80211 AP mode with hostapd on linux 3.5.0, I immediately hit this fatal pagefault [1].
I can cook a debug kernel, reproduce, disassemble the code and do some quick analysis, if that helps get the ball rolling? Thanks!
