Hi,
After doing insmod/rmmod of libertas, kmemleak found:
unreferenced object 0xe90f1398 (size 64):
comm "rmmod", pid 836, jiffies 4294944467 (age 34.620s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):

By adding some printks I have found that cfg80211_disconnected() does
indeed queue an event to be processed in cfg80211_wq on the eth0
device, but by the time cfg80211_process_rdev_events() is called, eth0
is no longer present in the rdev's netdev_list, so the event never
gets processed (or freed).
