I get the same error with 2.6.9-rc1-mm1, but now for my ipv6-over-ipv4
tunnel.

unregister_netdevice: waiting for xs6all to become free

etc. when trying to reboot or shutdown. Usage count = 1

I'm pretty sure I didn't see this in 2.6.8.1 nor in 2.6.8.1-mm1.

This is a plain ipv6-over-ipv4 tunnel like this:

/etc/network/interfaces:
auto xs6all
iface xs6all inet6 v4tunnel
endpoint xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
up ip route add 2000::0/3 via xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx
address xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx
netmask 64
up ip tunnel change xs6all ttl 64

I'm running Debian Unstable with all the latest updates as of today.

Thanks for any hints,
Jurriaan
