Could you check if your kernel has commit 2e71a6f8084e ("net: gro:
selective flush of packets"), and the fix contained in commit
c3c7c254b2e8cd99b0adf288c2a1bddacd7ba255
("net: gro: fix possible panic in skb_gro_receive() ")

Normally, first commit was in 3.7-rc1, but maybe it was backported into
you 3.6.11 kernel ?

Do you have a git tree for your kernel ?
