   the same problem here

Does the following patch fix this for people?

reset_xmit_timer errors with 2.4.0

[Patrick Michael Kane]

Hello!

I've installed 2.4.0 on a system that has been tracking 2.3.xx/2.4test for
quite a while.  With 2.4.0 installed, I've started to see the following
errors:

reset_xmit_timer sk=cfd889a0 1 when=0x3b4a, caller=c01e0748
reset_xmit_timer sk=cfd889a0 1 when=0x3a80, caller=c01e0748
reset_xmit_timer sk=cfd889a0 1 when=0x398a, caller=c01e0748
reset_xmit_timer sk=cfd889a0 1 when=0x389e, caller=c01e0748
reset_xmit_timer sk=cfd889a0 1 when=0x37b6, caller=c01e0748

It's a UP system with no kernel patches, running an eepro100 card.  I did
not get these errors under any of the 2.4test kernels.  Should I be worried?

Best,

the same problem here + a lot of:
inet6_ifa_finish_destroy
inet6_ifa_finish_destroy
inet6_ifa_finish_destroy
messages from kernel.

RTL-8029(AS) here but I guess that bug is somwhere else not at eth layer/level.
