I have/had seen similar errors with my Hardware. T61 with Pro/Wireless
4965AGN and the if_iwn driver.  I get Firmware error and then from time
to time the pci bus gets detached as well. But i did not think of it as
a Problem of the driver or code but of my faulty old Hardware.
I have to reboot to get it working.

Sorry at the moment i have no log about it. Uptime is 2 days since
upgrading to 11.1 Release.
