Subject: 3.15 drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/cnic.c:576 suspicious
 rcu_dereference_check() usage!

Hi All,

We've had a report [1] of the bnx2i/cnic driver(s) throwing suspicious
RCU usage with 3.15 merge window kernels on an i686 machine.  This
corresponds to Linux v3.14-12812-g321d03c86732.  I've included the
dump below.

Has anyone seen this issue before?

josh
