sorry about beeing so unspecific.

I'm talking about:
[171464.091567] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 
000000000000002c
[171464.092073] IP: [<ffffffff815494f6>] ipv4_dst_check+0xb6/0x190
[171464.092073] PGD 15344e067 PUD 14c821067 PMD 0
[171464.092073] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP

Which is caused by: ipv4: fix lockdep splat in rt_cache_seq_show
	
This is the patchset you made for 3.1:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg182508.html

So we're talking AT LEAST about these ones:
