I am seeing more networking-related funniness with 2.6.17-rc5-mm3 on the
same machine previously fixed by git-net-llc-fix.patch. The console log is
below. I've done no investigation work in case it's a known problem.

It's not a known problem, afaik.

There are quite a few changes in the net tree. I guess the first thing to
investigate would be 2.6.17-rc5+origin.patch+git-net.patch.


That survived long enough to build a kernel, but backing out git-net on top of mm like I did for the LLC bug also survived. Not sure what is going on.
