IMHO this bug might be considered as fixed by updating a userspace tool
(KNetworkManager) - unless somebody wants to seek for the exact reason...

For me (I am the reporter) the problem was solved by upgrading a userspace
tool, so I think the bug filed against the kernel can be closed marking
that this was not really a kernel bug.

Yes, let's hope author(s) of KNetworkManager would let us know if they
had to change it because of the kernel error.
