dronus, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/desktops-and-all-in-ones/thinkcentre-m-series-desktops/thinkcentre-m83 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (FBKTA6A). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?  If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and all of the information above is provided,
then please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Kernel crashes in rt2x00queue_get_entry+0x24

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When using an Logilink USB WiFi stick reported as  Ralink Technology,
  Corp. RT5372 Wireless Adapter, I ancounter frequent disconnects
  despite good wifi signal, and repeated kernel crashes at
  rt2x00queue_get_entry+0x24.

  The crash may happen from time to time, but can be provoked by heavy
  wifi traffic.

  Maybe it is a problem with the drivers state management, because dmesg
  shows resets or replugs of the device if temporary disconnect happens.
  So I think the device may reset due to other problems (eg. flaky usb
  power), and the driver doesn't handle it well in all states. Maybe the
  above function is called with the device already disconnecting.
