In 2.6.0-test11, IPV6 is not correctly cleaning up the network device reference's
(ie missing dev_put).  So if I do:
	rmmod e100
it hangs forever and complains about that not all references have been cleaned up.

This happens even if no IPV6 addresses have been set up. Just having ipv6 available
to be loaded at boot up.  The vendor startup scripts (SuSe 9) may be setting something.
