Title:
  8086:4224 Panic after enabling rtap_iface in ipw2200 driver
  (ipw_handle_promiscuous_tx / skb_put)

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  1) Enable the rtap_iface of the ipw2200 driver by echoing 1 in
  /sys/module/ipw2200/drivers/pci:ipw2200/*/rtap_iface

  2) ifconfig rtap0 up

  3) Use the eth1 wireless interface (eg. send some data, connect to a
  network) or even just run ifconfig many times

  4) A kernel panic occurs.

  I'm attaching two screenshots of the panic, took one on
  3.0.0-16-generic and one on 3.0.0-16-generic-tuxonice.

  uname -a is:
  Linux VittGamLaptop2 3.0.0-16-generic-tuxonice #29~ppa1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 9 10:57:58 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

  The computer is an IBM Thinkpad X41. The ipw2200 module I use is the
  stock module that comes with the Ubuntu kernel.

  The bug still exists with:
  linux-image-3.4.0-999-generic-pae_3.4.0-999.201205170406_i386.deb 17-May-2012 08:27
