I have managed to workaround this bug by using a hint from another
bugreport:

In my /etc/network/interfaces file, I use, before anything dealing with
the wireless stuff, a pre-up that just brings up the interface (the
contents of my pre-up are simply "ip link set ra0 up", minus the
quotes).

Of course, this is a dirty workaround, but it does avoid the Oops that I
have been seeing.

Hope this helps, Rogério Brito.
