At a guess I'd say that local variable `stats' in loopback_get_stats()
is null.
That code was recently changed in linux-next:
commit c02373bf2759dd210dc8c72c9c9b4a8f1c279cac
Author: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com>
Date: Wed Nov 19 21:46:18 2008 -0800
netdev: convert loopback to net_device_ops
First device to convert over is the loopback device.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com>
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
but it's a bit hard to see how that change could cause the crash which
you observed.

Could be that some other code is stomping on per-cpu variables?

I don't know what was the cause, but mmotm 2008-12-02-17-08 is working fine.
