Subject: Re: Panic at tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue

seems that i found a bug.
it was a problem with nvidia card(forcedeth):
00:08.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet (rev a3)
and dynamic netconsole compiled into the kernel:
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE=y
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC=y

but need to check it though.
