Rajesh, I applied your patch and it definitely seems to have halped.  The
server lasted nearly three days. :-)  In fact, it didn't really seem to
hard lock but I had to reset it to get things working after the latest
crash.

I started also noticing "Neighbour table overflow" error messages as well.
This server makes heavy use of proxy arp, so I wonder if I need to tweak
the gc_thresh* and the other gc* variables in proc...

The weird thing is that even after these "oopses" happened, the box was
still functioning.  I could access the web server running on it, it was
still passing traffic for existing tunnels, but I could not establish new
ones.  Couldn't ssh in, etc (thus I had to hard reset it).

As you can see, this is running on kernel 2.6.9 (from Fedora Core 2 testing
update tree) w/ your patch you mentioned below.

Any ideas?
