Would you be able to disassemble your kernel so we could tell where
the null pointer dereference happens?
Sure, but wouldn't it be better to provide the object file containing
the debug symbols as well?
Otherwise, the null pointer dereference happens somewhere in:

I put some additional printks around that code, and it turned out that
skb->dev is null, so "if (unlikely(skb->dev != orig_dev))" succeeds, but
"&skb->dev->ptype_specific" oopses.
Thanks,
Ivo
