REGRESSION: 3.4.0->3.5.0-rc2 kernel WARNING on cable plug on Acer Aspire One, no network

System is an Acer Aspire One ZG5 running Fedora 16 32-bits with latest 
updates.

I compiled and ran linux-3.4.0 with no issues.

I then compiled 3.5.0-rc2 with the attached kernel config, and rebooted 
with unplugged ethernet cable. I started an ordinary user session and 
then plugged the ethernet cable. Almost immediately I got a kernel BUG 
with the following backtrace, and the DHCP failed, as well as any other 
network communication:
