I've been banging on my test setup for the past week. I haven't tracked down the cause yet, but something in my prior build system results in this problem being masked with some builds. Doing pure vanilla builds from git I'm able to reproduce with 3.6 and the 3.7-rc series reliably. Support for my GFN doesn't exist officially prior to 3.6 and I didn't want to introduce new variables by back porting support and trying to test with that patch set so I was unable to isolate a start point for the failure I found. I can reproduce the failure with 3.7-rc6 currently. Currently I'm running stable on 3.7-rc6 with the below patch and my RealTek 8712 USB NIC. I'm open to any and all suggestions on how to test further.
