I also hit a bug related to noop_qdisc running the net-next kernel. 
I hit this bug every time I run "ifconfig eth0 mtu 9000; ifconfg eth0 1500" for any
interface (tested against s2io and e1000) that is up, otherwise the bug isn't
reproducible.

The bug dumps the following calltrace: 

[root@io-dolphins net-next-2.6]# ifconfig eth0  mtu 9000; ifconfig eth0 mtu 1500

SP (ffecf8a0) is in userspace

And the code which is causing the bug is the following: 

void __netif_schedule(struct Qdisc *q)
{
        BUG_ON(q == &noop_qdisc);

So, somehow we're reaching __netif_schedule() using a noop_qdisc.
