We're hitting this too, on both 2.6.16.36 and 2.6.19.1.

It seems to happen when flushing a user-defined ebtable, or removing a 
rule -- but not every time. It leaves the ebtable userspace process in D 
state on 2.6.19.1 but not on 2.6.16.36 (?).

Considering I've never had these problems before, and that both stable 
(2.6.16.36) and current (2.6.19.1) exhibit this issue, I'd venture to 
guess that it's something that went into both of them very recently.
