[ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
-------------------------------------
sirq-net-rx/5/78 is trying to release lock (&lock->lock) at:
[<ffffffffa0650420>] ipt_do_table+0x8e8/0x968 [ip_tables]
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
3 locks held by sirq-net-rx/5/78:
 #0:  (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: [<ffffffff8141d2ae>] 
rcu_read_lock+0x0/0x3a

I've started to do a little debugging, some other info that might be 
useful:

ffffffff8141d2ae /home/jkacur/jk-2.6/net/core/datagram.c:230
function skb_free_datagram_locked lock_sock(sk);

#2:  (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: [<ffffffff81452bf7>] 
rcu_read_lock+0x0/0x3a
