By the way, here is a bit more about the oops:

It only seems to happen if I set TX_CTL_NO_ACK directly in
parse_tx_radiotap *and* add a printk to assign_seq that depends on
TX_CTL_NO_ACK. If I don't add the printk, no oops occurs, however it
seems that something unsets TX_CTL_NO_ACK after it is set in
parse_tx_radiotap.

And here is the log:
