Subject: [BUG] 2.6.26-rc2-mm1 - kernel panic at inet_create() on powerpc

Hi Andrew,

2.6.26-rc2-mm1 kernel panics on powerpc, while running ltp test over it.
I have attached the gdb output of the pc and lr registers. The patch
list_for_each_rcu-must-die-networking.patch points to changes made 
to the same lines listed by the gdb output.
