I'm not sure how much code is shared between AR5212 and AR2413 but I
saw kmalloc poison issues about a month back with a fedora rawhide
kernel on a machine with a AR2413 chipset ... I filed the bug here:

http://madwifi.org/ticket/1856

I don't use that machine much so I haven't tried other kernels but
perhaps the above info helps in some way.
