Re: Dead loop on netdevice eth5, fix it urgently!
This message comes from linux/net/sched/sch_generic.c. It seems to be a warning about some sort of a locking problem in the driver/networking code.
At least in kernel 2.6.18 there was a kernel locking mistake that caused similar symptoms.

Ensure you're up to date with kernel patches.
What's the name of the Linux distribution you're running?

It's a Check Point firewall appliance called SecurePlatform.

I think it would be best to take this up with CheckPoint's support people then.
It would seem that when this message is displayed, a packet might get dropped. I don't know enough about Linux kernel internals to be sure about that.
