I ran some tests and i believe i found the reason for these messages.
Although typically no other message appears before these lines  i tried
to replicate their appearance and noticed the following:

[  480.600000] eth0: link down
[  480.600000] br-lan: port 1(eth0) entered disabled state
[  482.490000] eth1: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
[  489.320000] batman_adv: bat0: Changing gw mode from: client to:
server
[ 1078.250000] net_ratelimit: 982 callbacks suppressed
[ 1093.550000] net_ratelimit: 169 callbacks suppressed
[ 1337.700000] net_ratelimit: 397 callbacks suppressed

[ 1850.070000] device mon0 entered promiscuous mode

[ 1942.320000] net_ratelimit: 218 callbacks suppressed

[ 3626.890000] device mon0 left promiscuous mode

[ 4551.240000] net_ratelimit: 2 callbacks suppressed
[ 5324.840000] net_ratelimit: 20 callbacks suppressed
[11319.580000] net_ratelimit: 5171 callbacks suppressed
[12768.620000] net_ratelimit: 1969 callbacks suppressed
[12921.550000] device mon0 entered promiscuous mode
[12941.440000] device mon0 left promiscuous mode

I am using horst - git-1 and due to personal convenience i have added:

iw dev wlan0 interface add mon0 type monitor

to /etc/rc.local leaving me only to type horst -i mon0 every time i need
to execute it.
net_ratelimit messages started to appear after some revision i used and
i was already using horst as described.

In my last tests to try to replicate the same net_ratelimit messages as
usual and i removed the mon0 interface. i did not see net_ratelimit
messages anymore while trying to replicate the issue.

Perhaps http://nbd.name/gitweb.cgi?p=aa-mac80211.git;a=summary which
replaced all files from AA mac80211 and hostapd directories needs a
patch or a fix somewhere.
If so i am ready to test any ideas.
