[2.6.0-mm2] slab corruption during packet flood on e100

Hi,

When routing a large stream of UDP packets through this machine, coming
in on eth1 (e100), headed towards dummy0, I get a flood of slab corruption
messages a la below. Box is a 2-way HT SMP machine.

Is this a known problem with the e100 driver perhaps?


thanks,
Lennert
