Following patch fixes one bug causing kernel panics with hostap_cs.o if PC Card resource verification fails for some reason. This might be the reason for your kernel panic, but it might as well be something else since this crash would require the card initialization to fail. If the problem persists, it would be useful to see the error message from the kernel with back trace resolved to function names..
