This happened to me on 10.10 (kernel Linux becks 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:36:48 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux). The steps to reproduce are the following:

- rmmod ipw2200
- modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1
- ifconfig rtap0 up

At this point everything seems to work like it should (you can even start wireshark to catch packets on rtap0), but a kernel panic occurs as soon as you try to use the real interface (i.e.: ping google.com).
I have been able to catch the oops log through netconsole.
