Re: 2.6 - Kernel panic with GRE tunneling

The original situation was with one of my normal machines (not VMWare),
the tunnel on that system has been operational for some years. The last
kernel before 2.6.0-test3 was 2.5.67-mm1 and it showed no problems. The
other end-point is a 2.4.21 which hasn't changed a bit over the last
period.

After I upgraded, I could ping to the other side, but got no replies. If
the other side ping'd me I got the before mentioned panic. After about
10 such crashes, the tunnel was finally dropped on both sides.

VMWare was used to get the error message (which didn't get logged to
syslog) from the console (without copying it by hand).
