[ath9k-devel] modprobe ath9k == BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000001dc

[Joseph Cheek <joseph@cheek.com>]

looks like i was a little hasty.  checking syslog I see:

Feb  2 22:49:31 harrisburg ath9k: received PCI FATAL interrupt
Feb  2 22:49:36 harrisburg wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP
00:21:91:df:00:29
 - assume out of range

can I assume that the lack of a ProbeResp is because of the fatal
interrupt 5 seconds earlier?
