I did some more looking into and testing of this kernel panic and it
is fixed by the following commit
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/net/mac80211/iface.c?id=87757a917b0b3c0787e0563c679762152be81312.
This commit is included in 3.10-stable and the latest compat-wireless,
but not in the current compat-wireless (22-5-2014) used by OpenWRT. So
the problem is already solved, sorry for the noise.

I have not found the reason for the problems with mixing wifi drivers.
So if anyone has a hint here, it would be great.
