What about following patch ?

Meelis, can you test it please ?

[PATCH] atm: clip: remove clip_tbl

Commit 32092ecf0644 (atm: clip: Use device neigh support on top of
"arp_tbl".) introduced a bug since clip_tbl is zeroed : Crash occurs in
__neigh_for_each_release()

idle_timer_check() must use instead arp_tbl and neigh_check_cb() should
ignore non clip neighbours.

Idea from David Miller.
