According to the report of [1], this driver is possible to cause the following error in ravb_tx_timeout_work(). ravb e6800000.ethernet ethernet: failed to switch device to config mode This error means that the hardware could not change the state from "Operation" to "Configuration" while some tx and/or rx queue are operating. After that, ravb_config() in ravb_dmac_init() will fail, and then any descriptors will be not allocaled anymore so that NULL pointer dereference happens after that on ravb_start_xmit(). To fix the issue, the ravb_tx_timeout_work() should check the return values of ravb_stop_dma() and ravb_dmac_init(). If ravb_stop_dma() fails, ravb_tx_timeout_work() re-enables TX and RX and just exits. If ravb_dmac_init() fails, just exits.
