Thanks for your report Miles.

Are you using Linus' tree? Felix wrote some patches that got rid of
the rate control private area which we kmalloc/kfree and at least one
user reported that these patches fixed a memory leak. I'm curious if
the same patches would resolve this issue.

Only thing is these patches apply against wireless-testing and not
2.6.32. To test them you'd have to pull wireless-testing master to
your tree and then apply the patches both before and after.

Would you be up to try that?
