Hi Shiri,

I used modprobe -r ib_ipoib. One of the pre-requisites to create
this crash is to do "ifdown ib0" and "ifdown ib1" while traffic is 
flowing through the bond master, and then remove the ipoib module.

If you simply remove the ipoib module, without doing the ifdowns the
crash does not occur.
