FYI I see exactly the same symptoms - tons of probe timeouts, usually
very shortly after the association.  But I see this with an Intel 5100
AGN so it's either mac80211-related or coincidence.  I now went back to
2.6.31 which is perfectly fine for about half an hour.  I'll try to
bisect it down a bit, but many .32-rc releases hang on very early in
ACPI code on this box which might make it a pain or impossible.
