OK, thanks for clarifying.

Are you sure that patch was the culprit? I cannot
reproduce the panic easily; it appeared only once
after 5 weeks uptime on our machine. I notice this
machine still has rev. 1.385 (the last update was
just one day before the commit). So maybe it's time
for the next update.
Thanks again for the information.
Best regards
