Subject: Network hangs on current git kernel

I'm running the latest git kernel 3.4.0-09820-g86c47b7 and see periodic
network "hangs" on my machine.

These hangs mostly occur when I read nntp news articles. Every once in a
while the nntp client seems to take forever to fetch an article. During
these hangs I see packet losses:

^C
--- heise.de ping statistics ---
46 packets transmitted, 32 received, 30% packet loss, time 45101ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 21.613/23.021/32.210/1.924 ms

Sorry, if this all sounds somewhat vague. I will try to record a sysrq-w dump
in the future.
