Config attached. The kernel runs on top of RHEL5.4, not sure if that is significant, but should explain some of the sysfs deprecated options enabled in it. 

The test is offline (online doesn't do much other than link check).

I also reproduced it with a fresh pull from this morning. Looks like it is easier to reproduce after you pass some traffic, just assigning IPv6 address may not be enough. Also rmmod hangs.

Thanks,
Emil
