Looks like your init (program) exited in some way. Does this happen when you use 
the built-in ethernet controller too? Try booting with a ramdisk and generate 
large amounts of ethernet traffic (try with iperf), see if you observe a crash 
or corruption.

What kind of patch did you apply , can you share that patch ?

Any ideas on this stuff above please?
