Subject: Kernel crash with repeated NF invocation


I observe that our machines randomly crash with a big stack trace 
in/around netfilter and bridging.

A bridge interface is grouping a number of TAP interfaces. It is my 
latest impression that the only explanation for this BUG with a (null) 
RIP is that the IRQ stack is exceeded when a packet is received from a 
tap interface and going out another tap interface.

I remember there being a kernel config option 
(CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW) that would emit messages 
similar to
"process foobar (12345) used greatest stack depth: 2042" --
would that also work for softirqs?
