So there seems to be some issue with unlucky timing when turning off wireless while the driver is busy scanning. I can't reproduce this, so it's a one-off, but it's not just ugly warnings, the kernel woudln't scan any wireless on that device afterwards and I had to reboot to get networking back, so there is some long-term damage. This is with Intel wireless (iwlwifi, it's a iwl N7260 thing, rev 0x144 if anybody cares) , but the warning callbacks don't seem to be iwl-specific. This was a recent top-of-git kernel (3.19.0-rc4-00241-gfc7f0dd38172 to be exact). Anybody have any ideas? Anything in particular I should try out to help possibly get more information?
