Hi David,

according to the kernel log you provided the crash occurs in
ieee80211_wake_txqs().
Could you please run gdb in order to identify the point where NULL
pointer dereference occurs? E.g:

$gdb mac80211.ko
$info address ieee80211_wake_txqs
$l*(<func addr>+<offset>)
offset is 0x1e3 in your log

Regards,
Lorenzo
