I'd be suspecting there's been a huge preempt_count() windup and the kernel thinks that it's running in_interrupt(), so various checks are triggering.
Please try this one:
--- devel/net/netlink/af_netlink.c~netlink-locking-fix 2005-07-27 14:10:07.000000000 -0700 +++ devel-akpm/net/netlink/af_netlink.c 2005-07-27 14:10:16.000000000 -0700 @@ -349,12 +349,12 @@ static int netlink_create(struct socket netlink_table_grab(); if (!nl_table[protocol].hash.entries) { - netlink_table_ungrab(); #ifdef CONFIG_KMOD /* We do 'best effort'. If we find a matching module, * it is loaded. If not, we don't return an error to * allow pure userspace<->userspace communication. -HW */ + netlink_table_ungrab(); request_module("net-pf-%d-proto-%d", PF_NETLINK, protocol); netlink_table_grab(); #endif _
And if that doesn't fix, enable CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT and see if the sub_preempt_count() check triggers.
