I could not reproduce the freezing with CONFIG_MAC80211_DEFAULT_PS
enabled.  That said, I'm using wireless-testing with a patch for the
scanning state machine (hopefully it will be committed today).

The output of dmesg doesn't show anything interesting.  The stack dump
from the video card is unlikely to be related.

But I think you may be getting something when the freeze happen.  But to
see it, you need to be on a text console.  There are other ways to
capture the kernel messages, which are described in the file
Documentation/oops-tracing.txt in the Linux sources.
