To be fair, I managed to reproduce it once with b43 but not again. Maybe
this weird timing behaviour was the cause of that.

Ok. I'll look through.

Hm. I thought it crashed in there. Could you put printk's into the two
functions called from this, and then switch to a console and tell me
which one shows up last? Elevate the printk priority to something like
KERN_ERR or change your console to show all messages.
