Sorry for the delay, vacation times :)

Anyways, it seems that you were right, the interrupt problems doesn't 
seem to stem from the card reader...

I've tried a lot of things, I even bought two microSDHC cards to 
experiment with and I've booted into a limited initramfs with no modules 
loaded and then done the same thing with only the sdhci module loaded.

In the end, it turns out that if the iwl4965 is disabled (e.g. via the 
rfkill button) and stays disabled, no error message is generated (I 
waited for > 30 minutes). If I later enable it and connect to my 
wireless AP, I get the error message approx 10 minutes after I've 
connected to the AP.

Does this mean I should contact the iwl4965 maintainers?
