Dmitri,

This problem may be related to the firmware loading race described here:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15294

I still have not fixed that bug yet.

But for your problem, perhaps you can try:

	echo 120 > /sys/class/firmware/timeout

as root in the initialization scripts to lengthen the firmware loading
timeout to 120 seconds.  Maybe that will work around the crash.

I'll try and look at what is going on in your crash dumps, if I have
time.

Regards,
Andy
