today I got the following kernel bug while wpa_supplicant tried to connect to my AP. Kernel is a self-compiled 2.6.22 running under Ubuntu Feisty.
The wireless device is a r8187 USB, the driver is patched for injection capability taken from www.aircrack-ng.org.
Don't know if this bug is related to the driver or to the kernel, I'm no expert.

Attached is the full dmesg and .config. Please CC to me, I'm not on the list.

I was able to reproduce the bug without a tainted kernel (i.e. without the nvidia binary module). Please let me know if you need more infos.
