Comment # 8 on bug 1205698 from Thomas Renninger

Difficult...
Not sure how much your kernel config differs from ours, but you quickly get
hundreds of lines of diff, if you take an older/newer one.

I guess you could try to apply your kernel config on our kernel, but you would
probably adjust some options.

Or try to identify difference related to network/netlink/irqproc/puh....

If Chang does not have an idea from his latest netlink/kernel works like: "Yeah
there recently was a bug in netlink stack, make sure to at least have version
6.x or make sure you disable option xy..."

I fear we cannot help you much.

I am in the process of cleaning up my bugs and would like to close this one
invalid.
Feel free to still comment if you find something.
You may even re-open if this is really related to irqbalance, but it seems as
if it is not.

Good luck!
