With "echo 1 >/proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_oops" I've got
what you're requested. See screenshot:

Thanks!

Please let me know if this patch fixes it:

[NET]: Fix segmentation of linear packets
Okay, will test now.
The fact that you're triggering this bug at all means that
something else has gone wrong.  First of all your picture
shows a device setting of "lo".  This does not tally with
the fact that the BUG was triggered by ssh.  Do you have
any idea why this is the case? Do you have any netfilter
rules that might cause this?
Yes, I have netfilter rules which redirect all outgoing
port 22 connections to local port 2222. I run tcpserver
on 2222 which spawns hose for each connection.

All this ugliness is required to get ssh working across
buggy D-Link router. It chokes on nagle-disabled sessions,
I think.

The rules:

# iptables -t nat -N redir22
# iptables -t nat -A redir22 -d 192.168.1.111 -j RETURN
# iptables -t nat -A redir22 -d 127.0.0.1 -j RETURN
# iptables -t nat -A redir22 --match owner --uid-owner daemon -j RETURN
# iptables -t nat -A redir22 -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to 2222
# iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j redir22

On port 2222 I have the following running:

If it is indeed lo, could you please check the ethtool -k
setting on it? Also what is the ethtool -k setting on the
interface where you expect ssh to go out?
# ethtool -k lo
