Subject: Soft lockup in 3.17-rc7 when using PPP over L2TP over IPSEC

I reliably get the following lockup when trying to set up a VPN tunnel 
using L2TP over IPSEC:

A few seconds after this appears, the second CPU also locks up and the 
system becomes useless.

I don't know if the problem is in the networking core or in the 
wireless driver.  If anyone wants, I can try testing using a wired 
Ethernet connection.

Note: This problem is not new.  It has been happening for at least the
last several kernel versions -- in fact, I don't know if this has ever
worked.

Can this be debugged and fixed?
