Hi Corey,

only person who can help to fix it is you ;)
Currently I'm trying to reproduce other bug with this driver/firmware 
without luck. Yesterday i started my test, i streamed some hundred 
gigabytes over the air and my system is still working.
My kernel is 3.9.0-wl-00003-g4125f14

If it is an regression, can you please do "git bisect". If you can 
locate the patch which introduced this regression, it will be great.
