Atheros drivers - cannot reboot/shutdown/whatever

After I've configured kernel so that network drivers would be built-in I can't reboot/shutdown, as the process stops at

Reboot/shutdown problems after an oops are plausible. You need to avoid the oops in the first place. If you build a kernel without the ath9k driver, does the oops go away?

Yes, when I disable cfg80211, mac80211, rfkill and everything related to atheros network adapters, I have no bugs at boot and shutdown goes perfectly well but I lose my wireless network interface.
Also, when I had 32-bit Gentoo installed, I had no problems with the issue
