after this, ksoftirq started running wild...
Since oprofile doesn't show any function ever called for a tasklet, I
started to investigate but couldn't find what was up. Then I removed the
bcm43xx_dscape module and the kernel blew up right away.
Then I patched the kernel with a runaway tasklet patch (see mail on
lkml) and got this (yeah, previous iteration of the patch where I forgot
a "\n"):

Hence, I'm able to point to bcm43xx now ;) Sorry I can't give a better
indication of what's up, I can try a different patch if you can come up
with a good way of debugging it. This usually seems to happen here after
an hour or two of not using the interface at all.
