According to what Larry wrote, this bug should disappear, if
the hw crypto offloading is disabled.
Christopher, can you please load the p54common kernel module
with the module parameter "nohwcrypt=1" and report back?
Regards,
Christian

Christian,
I can confirm that the skb panic goes away if hardware encryption is disabled.
My bisection led to a branch commit d17ec4d as the "bad" commit. Rather than
finding out where the bisection went bad, I added code to check skb->tail,
skb->end, and the length to be added. At the time of the call that panics, there
are 6 bytes between tail and end with 8 bytes needed.
I will be looking for the place where the driver calculates how large the skb
should be.
