Even though I no longer get kernel panics from iwlagn, the bug is still
not completely fixed. Once in a while I get these traces in my messages.
Wireless is disabled, and modprobe -r && modprobe, nor rmmod or insmod
will reload the iwlagn (nor cfg80211, iwlcore, mac80211, ...) module. A
reboot is required to get wireless up and working again.
