Subject: Kernel panic from tg3 net driver

Hi,

I get this panic when I try to print from a virtual machine:

I tried to bisect it, but couldn't finish, because after the last step
the boot process got stuck right after selecting the kernel in grub
and I ran out of time:

In the first bad kernel (3.1-rc1) there was this in the log:
