[Bug 546871] Re: ath5k system freeze induced by Chrome bookmark sync

[GonzO]

@Jens: It took a very long time, but even with that kernel I got the
black screen, blinking-caps-lock freeze on my T42p.

It SEEMS to only happen on this kernel when I leave the machine on long
enough for the screensaver to kick in - i.e., left it on overnight, came
to it in the morning all frozen.

The _only thing_ that keeps this machine stable is the MadWiFi (ath_pci)
driver.  This driver works just fine with every network I try it on, but
it is a pain to have to recompile/re-insert the mod every time there is
a kernel upgrade.  I've not once crashed when using that; I was trying
the new kernel out just to see if there was an easier way.
