I firstly discovered this on 2.6.22-6~bpo40+1 (debian's backports), but I'm 
not sure if that was same thing (it is long ago).

Now i tested on test machine with these kernels:
2.6.24, 2.6.24.6 
(http://ya.bofh.cz/archive/kernel-2.6-htbcrash/2/netconsole-2.6.24.6-slon.txt), 
2.6.25

I can test anything you want.

I kicked them out now (ifb, vlan, bonding). Problem persist.

Yes.
