Dmesg output

After updating the kernel to 2.6.39.1 (I'm using Arch linux 64bit), the wifi stopped working. It associate then crash with this message, repeated a lot of time :

Going back to 2.6.38 solves the problem. 
Please ask if you need more information.

Well the problem is still present (very similar but maybe a little different, I did not copy the log this time) in linux 3.0.1
Comment 2 John W. Linville 2012-01-13 19:15:40 UTC
Does this problem persist with 3.2 kernels?
