I'm getting the following sort of dumps (below) on a 3.2.27 kernel on an arm/kirkwood (actually DreamPlug) machine that's used as a router. I imagine it being somehow related to the fact that it operates a network bridge (I imagine this because I have another identical machine with exactly the same kernel and a very similar config but not running a bridge, and the warning never pops up). Is this worth investigating? (I will, of course, provide the config file and any other relevant data if the answer is "yes".) Is this potentially serious? (I'm getting hard lockups on this machine which I suspect are due to hardware and unrelated to this, but if someone tells me it could be the cause, I'd be more than happy to believe it.)
