On a preempt kernel I can trigger the hang easily, but alas nothing
further is printed on the console.
The "suspend MAC" patch does not help. I also added the mac_suspended
patch, which does fix the assertion failures, but it still hangs after
some up/down-ing of the interface and an attempt to get an IP address
via DHCP as I normally do.
I still get the hang if I revert the preemptible periodic work patch
(91769e7dd9cef7988dc4280f74ed168351beb5b8) but if I revert the locking
pre-work too (78ff56a06edc3407996173daf63e48f6b90c7062) then it's
robust again. I do get a TX timeout after I bounce the interface a
few times and then do DHCP, but it reinitialises the card and succeeds
in getting an IP address.
Below is what happens running Linus's current tree with the
mac-suspend and refcount patches applied.
