It oopsd for me in skb_seq_read. addr2line said it was 
linux-2.6/net/core/skbuff.c:2228, which is this line:


while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags) {


I added some printks in there and it looks like we hit this:

         } else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb &&
                    skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) {
                 st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list;
                 st->frag_idx = 0;
                 goto next_skb;
         }


Then when we hit the goto and start again, and we oops when we hit that 
"while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags)" line.
