Hi,
I've come across a problem when loading a module straight after unmounting a JFFS2 partition.
I'm using a Geos ADSL router board with an AMD Geode LX/CS5536 chipset and a Hynix H27U1G8F2BTR NAND flash.
I can reproduce my problem with this shell script:
#!/bin/sh
mount -t jffs2 mtd:logs /mnt
echo "Hello World" > /mnt/file
umount /mnt
modprobe r8169
After a few seconds I get this panic:

Any ideas on what I should do next?

You probably use 3.5? There was a bug which was fixed, try the latest
stable 3.5 version, the fix must be there.

No I'm using 3.6. Do you know what the patch was so I can look it up?

Ok I'll try 3.6.7. "JFFS2: fix unmount regression" seems to be your
patch. Thanks for your help.
