Yes, there probably is some powersave-related bug in there somewhere (I've hit it twice over the last two weeks with PS enabled) - basically the device locks up and requires resetting via modprobe -r rt2500pci; modprobe rt2500pci.

Anyways, that's nowhere near as severe as this panic so I'll recommend opening a separate bug for that (otherwise I'll do that as soon as the patch for this one is applied to Fedora kernel or upstream so that the bug dependencies don't get too confusing).
