I experienced this problem (only) three times until now. If I remember
correctly the last time with 3.2.1. I still do not know how to reproduce
this.

The work around is to unplug and replug the network cable or to unload
the module and load it again.

That sounds promising. It would be great if this could be fixed. Please
tell me how I can get you better debugging information next time this
happens.

Please find the messages from the Linux kernel ring buffer (`dmesg`)
attached at the end.
