Subject: inconsistent lock state in 2.6.18.1

I see this OOPS on boot with 2.6.18.1/amd64:

It seems to be ISCs dhclient3 talking to a NIC which is driven by ne2k_pci
module:

Here's the ver_linux:
If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.
