Nothing really special there, we run a lot (20) of KVM guest (mainly 
linux firewalls for lots of differents vlan), so we have a lot of 
bridges vlan & tun/tap.
Oh, and CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING is set to n (because of  the other 
bug already sent to netdev - more to come on next mail)

Hard to say if this BUG is new in 2.6.37. This host was running fine 
with 2.6.34.2 since August 2010.
Bisecting will be hard due to the time to trigger the bug (and the fact 
that this machine is a production machine)

Anyway, I can test with a specific kernel version if you suspect something.

Regards,
