Ah, looks like I didn't dug thoroughly enough. Anyway, this means my BUG proved the patch's claim wrong :o), at least one atomic gremlin is left: ieee80211_sta_timer -> ieee80211_sta_find_ibss -> ieee80211_sta_join_ibss -> ieee80211_ioctl_siwfreq -> ieee80211_hw_config Anyone already an idea how to fix it?
