Subject: NETDEV WATCHDOG: %s (%s): transmit queue %u timed out

After installing a 3.4 kernel, I got the following:

(The 17 local patches are to the PPS subsystem and nowhere near net net/

The system is an AND Phenom X4 processor with 8G of ECC RAM, recently rebooted with

The Tulip 100baseT ports are used for external and DMZ ports, while the RTL8169 is the main "inside"
gigabit network port.

r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded
r8169 0000:02:00.0: irq 40 for MSI/MSI-X
r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth4: RTL8168b/8111b at 0xffffc90000020000, 00:21:85:16:51:7f, XID 18000000 IRQ 40
r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth4: jumbo features [frames: 4080 bytes, tx checksumming: ko]

It doesn't seem to be causing serious problems, but I presume the warning is there because
someone would like to know about it.
