Look for patches on the mailing list.

There's some minor changes that need to be done in /sys/i4b/layer1
(they're very minor really!), I can't be sure if they'll get rid
of the panic, but they'll sort out the IPAC version 2 unknown, and
I beleive they stop the panic too.

I spend some of these weekend helping someone out with this problem,
and frankly I've seen the patches, applied the patches and still
can't quite figure out why no-one has merged them in.

So if you get the patches, send-pr the changes and hopefully someone
will commit them to the tree, or alternatively, if it's a new -stable
you might want to get an easier set of patches from someone who's
managed to get it into the tree and has access to the box still.

P.S. I've cc'd the guy who has a copy of the patch, so if you can't 
find it ask him. Sorry to hassle you Simon.
