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.
