Ignore these messages - it's not a bug, just a warning that the link-status code 
is currently executing as a tasklet instead of in process-context. This will 
change in later versions.

For what it's worth, I have also noticed that the USB drivers are unwilling to 
connect with 2.4.21, although Linux 2.4.20 was fine. However, my connection 
*does* recover as soon as the NETDEV watchdog trips:

NETDEV WATCHDOG: wlan0: transmit timed out

This causes the driver to reset both BULK-IN and BULK-OUT pipes, and everything 
has been stable ever since (10 days).

I am running firmware (PRI: 1.1.2, STA: 1.5.6), and am still setting the 
prism2_doreset=1 module paramter in my /etc/modules.conf file.
