Bug Description
My kernel log is being filled by this:
WARNING: at /build/
[... stack trace, etc ]
at a very very fast rate. Since the stack trace shows it is in ieee80211_rx and the rate is so high, I'm guessing this is happening with every interrupt for the device.
Any ideas as to the cause/fix for this? It makes it difficult to gather meaningful data from the kernel log when it's being filled by those messages. And any amount of traffic causes /var/log/kern.log to grow at a rather fast rate.
This is mostly an annoying issue, as there seem to be no other real symptoms. Speedtest.net tests show it's achieving the same bandwidth I'd get if I was connected via ethernet (although kern.log grew from 7.2MB to 7.6MB just by running a single test on there).

I have the same problem on my Alienware M11xR2 (since the 11.10 beta), and it currently is the main reason that is preventing me from switching to Ubuntu as my main OS. The speed of my connection seems to change depending on the number of people connected to the access point, but it is not stable. I can get a 3 Mbps speed at one point and then suddenly fall to 2 Kbps. The only way I can connect to the internet with my laptop is by using an Ethernet cable.
