This looks like duplicate of
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/901971, which is fixed with
patch http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/901971/focus=8445
Unfortunately this patch caused a regression, see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/42112 and it
was reverted.

Perhaps you can try out that patch directly until the issue is resolved?
