Subject: bnx2_poll panicking kernel

Hi,

Has anyone seen the below bug before? I'm already upgrading in hope that it
might be already fixed in a newer kernel, but anyway.

It started happening a few days ago, on a load of a few tens of MB/s (Debian
rsync mirroring). It doesn't happen on every mirror pulse, so it's not
exactly reproducible...

I'm not sure what the perl process could be. I have one script running
as part of the RRD-graphing setup, it connects to apache's server-status
page every minute.

It certainly doesn't sound like something that should affect the network
driver or the kernel task scheduler...
