Yes, this is due to a locking problem in do_tty_hangup() which everyone is
pretenting isn't there.

Odd.  -ENODEV against the ppp device I suppose.  test5-mm1 added the below
fix, which is only applicable if you're using devfs (are you using devfs?)
and is unlikely to explain this anyway.

Still, could you do a `patch -p1 -R' of the below, see what happens?

Hi Andrew,

PPP isn't working anymore since test5-mm1.

Here a stacktrace from test6-mm2, last lines from dmesg:

Badness in local_bh_enable at kernel/softirq.c:119

PPP is build in,

trying to start pppd doesn't work. Syslog:

No, no result. Still can't use PPP.

I'll to compile PPP as module to get another type of stacktrace.
