This doesn't seem to have an effect on the issue.

I'm not sure what userspace setting would correspond to this. The only
thing that looks related is /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_default and
/proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default, but those seem to operate on memory
pools rather than individual buffers.

mwifiex logs this on startup:
mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: driver_version = mwifiex 1.0 (14.66.9.p96)

I haven't really made use of station mode much, but I just tried it
and it seems stable. The first time I tried to connect, the driver had
a command timeout while scanning and the card dropped out, but the
second time, it connected and has stayed stable for 30 minutes or so.
The network I'm connected to uses WPA2. I'll continue to monitor the
box to see if the queue hangs.

Thanks,
Andrew
