Looks like the RX interrupt occurred at an inconvenient point during the
list_del call in the RX tasklet (orinoco_rx_isr_tasklet).

The call needs to be protected from the RX interrupt.

Quick patch included below - I'm not sure that the local_irq_* functions
are the ones we need, but it compiles and runs.

I don't suppose you're able to reproduce the error?


Dave.
