Subject: PROBLEM: Oops with forcedeth and netkey in 2.6.21 and 22

Hi there, 

I cannot get my AMD64 working with forcedeth network chip and Netkey.

While recompiling kernel to get iptables and OpenSWAN working, I cannot
anymore boot my computer, it freeze on network setup.

After some reboots / recompile, I've traced the problem arround NetKEY.
If I enable it in the kernel, I'm getting oops.

Starting in single, I've been able to see errors comming because
dhcpclient process and af_packet module. If I dont load af_packet at
boot, i can setup manually an ip address. Unfortunaty, when lauching
gnome, my computer hang (probably some process tries to load
af_packets ?)

The NIC is on-board NIC on the MSI Neo4 Platinum motherboard (product
MS-7125)

I've tried thoses kernel version, same behavior :
 - 2.6.21.6
 - 2.6.22.1
 - 2.6.22.6


Here is the oops I got (dmesg captured) :
