Hi,

after reading the thread "Regression in 3.8-rc1: "BUG: sleeping
function called from invalid context"" [1] I decided to pull-in
net.git#master (up to commit 9b1536c490d5: "bridge: call
br_netpoll_disable in br_add_if") on top of Linus upstream.

With this kernel I can't neither ping my router nor does DNS work.
IIRC there were 6 commits, not sure which of them is culprit.

I tried the v3.8-rc1-raring from [2] which works nicely here on
Ubuntu/precise AMD64.
Can't say if NetworkManager is involved or not.

Does that mean that with Linus upstream, i.e. 3.8-rc1, you can ping your
router, etc?

If so, you could bisect the 6 commits...

Nah, he said that b-word :-).
The machine I am working on has some hardware damage (keyboard gets
not detected on bios start or even within daily-work, recently I could
not type further while writing an email, so raping that machine is not
a good idea. I could bisect within a reduced localmodconfig setup. No
big promises...)

Starting bisect session with a "localmodconfig" setup... (bad: last
commit and good: v3.8-rc1)...
