Hi Thomas,

It booted to runlevel 5, brought up GDM, I logged in and XFCE came up
fine. It wasn't until NetworkManager started dorking around with the
802.11 adapter and started doing WEP things that I got the above
warning. Right after I got this, NetworkManager connected and the
system locked up. Sorry, no traceback from the panic.

I haven't gone far in looking at this, but it looks like we might have
to adjust expectations in the crypto code, since it's probably ok to
be in_irq() in this case, since we're actually in a kthread.

I've attached my config and the dmesg output.
