[Users] Kernel panic in nf_conntrack_ipv6 IPv6 Firewall 2.6.27-aivazovsky

[Michael H. Warfield]

Just a warning.

	I've just run into a kernel panic in nf_conntrack_ipv6 in
2.6.27-aivazovsky, that just came out.  Filed in bugzilla, bug #1151.
Present on both an i686 and an AMD64 x86_64.  If you have the IPv6
firewall enabled with contracking, it's going to blow chunks as soon as
you hit it with IPv6 traffic.  Hard crash.  Kills the interrupt handler
and you're done.  No keyboard response and requires a hard reset or
power cycle.

	Mike
