Subject: e1000e on DH55HC stalling and kernel panic in 3.6.6

Hi

I just tried to run latest kernel on my DH55HC motherboard latest 
kernel 3.6.6 and got various network problems, such as network traffic 
are stopping, and sometimes i am getting kernel panic.
When traffic are stopping, ethtool -r eth0 sometimes helps.
When i do ethtool -G eth0 rx NNN , sometimes it will give kernel panic, 
but it is hard to reproduce.

I tried to capture panic on pictures, so will try to decode on what i 
got photo, it is a nightmare, but sadly i dont have serial in hands to 
get data over it.
