Hi,

I have warnings in RHEL5/FC6 at reboot time.
This patch fix the only following warning.
"free_irq_vector: double free!"

BTW, the Call Trace is fixed by the following patch.
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=edd106fc8ac1826dbe231b70ce0762db24133e5c;hp=e78181feb0b94fb6afeaef3b28d4f5df1b847c98

I'm not sure yet which is better A or B.
A. "# /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge stop" before reboot
B. apply the above e1000 patch

Best Regards,

Akio Takebe
