Kernel crash in 2.6.39-rc2-wl

This is from today's wireless-testing kernel, with a few non-tainting patches related to wireless stuff. In general, 39-rc2 seems pretty flaky, but on this boot, this is the first kernel splat.

I had reloaded our user-space network-config DB, which would have deleted and created some VETH and MAC-VLAN interfaces, and a bunch of protocol sockets, virtual-routers (xorp with unique routing tables) etc.
