Subject: Hitting slab BUG with bridging/cxgb3 on 2.6.31-rc2

I got the following BUG() from 2.6.31-rc2+git (up to commit e3288775)
while transferring a huge file via rsync.  The networking setup on this
system is rather complicated: I have two two-port NICs installed, one
driven by cxgb3 (eth2/eth3) and one by iw_nes (eth4/eth5), and I have
one port of each NIC (eth3 and eth5) as well as the on-board forcedeth
LAN (eth0) attached to a bridge.

I then have the forcedeth LAN port eth0 cabled to a real 1 Gb switch
port, and I have a cable from the non-bridge eth4 port of the iw_nes NIC
to the bridge port eth3 of the cxgb3 NIC, and I have the system's real
IP address configured on that eth4 non-bridge interface of the iw_nes
NIC.

(The reason for this crazy setup is that it lets me do tcpdump on the
bridge to grab all traffic from the iw_nes NIC as it appears on the
wire; this avoids any possibility of munging of packets seen by doing
tcpdump on the eth4 interface before they are actually put on the wire)

The BUG is at:

static inline struct kmem_cache *page_get_cache(struct page *page)
{
	page = compound_head(page);
512 =>	BUG_ON(!PageSlab(page));
	return (struct kmem_cache *)page->lru.next;
}

so I guess cxgb3 is passing garbage to free_skb() somehow.

I'm continuing to debug and see when this appeared and possibly bisect
where it was introduced, although it is slow going because it takes a
while before the bug actually triggers (I've seen 100s of MB transferred
before hitting the crash).

anyway any ideas are welcome.
