This looks like some sort of locking bug...the warning comes from the code
in softirq.c (below). For what it's worth, the tainting module was not in active use.

I should be able to get source code printout for the various addresses
if there is anything of particular interest.

Here's some decoding below...it seems that the mac80211 code free's an SKB
with dev_kfree_skb(skb); while holding a spin_lock_irqsave(), and then
eventually we get the splat warning.

I'm not really sure what the problem is, however.

     WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());
#ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS
     local_irq_disable();
