So this looks like the ethernet driver b44 instead of ath5k, I think.
Could be, but!
I can trigger it when doing this kind of SSH traffic:
PC >--100Mbit--> b44 (Asus WL-500gP) ath5k >--wireless--> laptop
When I transfer over wired ethernet only through this device, everything
works properly, no page allocation failures, no warnings, panics.

...but this is higher up the stack. skb_gso_segment is about a year old
so it would be odd if there were a bug here. Can you do the following?
objdump -S net/core/dev.o, then find the address for skb_gso_segment,
it should look something like this (your numbers and disassembly will
differ):
00004190 <skb_gso_segment>:
*
* It may return NULL if the skb requires no segmentation. This is
* only possible when GSO is used for verifying header integrity.

Hmm, I get:
00000000 <skb_gso_segment>
So I better leave the files here:
http://www1.wpkg.org/skb_gso_segment/
Let me know if you need anything else.
