Try this patch, but the issue you see is related to libertas... anyway,
I've added this patch I'll try to see what's wrong with libertas.

From: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@xxxxxxxxxxx>
[PATCH] Add iwl-load, and make sure we disable iwl4965 upon install
We now has two drivers for different kernel releases for
the Intel 4965 device. To account for this we add a script
to allow us to disable and enable one or each other.
By default we disable iwl4965 as we are replacing it with
iwlagn.
If you want to enable iwl4965:
iwl-load iwl4965
If you want to enable iwlagn:
iwl-load iwlagn
By default we'll use iwlagn.
