echo "options p54common nohwcrypt=1" > /etc/modprobe/p54common.conf,
if you compiled p54common as a module (which I hope you did).
if p54common is built-in, then you'll have to add a p54common.nohwcrypt=1
kernel cmdline parameter.

The (most likely) reason why your AP drops you and does not allow you
to reconnect, is probably due to the "TKIP countermeasures".
What's your Accesspoint/Router and which firmware are you currently using?
