Subject: Re: Three TCP/IP warnings in 2.6.25-rc7-git1

I can reproduce it during one day on my loaded proxies. I have:

[223178.376188] WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:2532 tcp_ack+0xd83/0x17bd()
and
[273139.505308] WARNING: at net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:2173
tcp_mark_head_lost+0x11e/0x126()

This two... maybe third, but i didn't notice it yet.
