Do you have any trace of the earlier failures?

This appears to be something caused by an earlier failure (possibly
whatever fails to allocate memory). Having network devices present
but being in the generic cleanup routines is wrong.

If there is no additional information can you please rerun with the
following change applied? That should at least report which function is
failing, and give us a good clue where to start debugging this.
