some more information: find below the same crash with vanilla 
linus/master and no extra patches. The crash site is:
a 32-bit testbox just triggered the same crash too:

 calling  init_mac80211_hwsim+0x0/0x310
 mac80211_hwsim: Initializing radio 0
 phy0: Failed to select rate control algorithm
 phy0: Failed to initialize rate control algorithm

 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

and that system has no wireless so i guess it's just some unregister 
inbalance kind of init/deinit buglet.
