which seems to point fingers at bce...
It does rather suggest that bce is not behaving. What happens if you
turn off checksum off-loading? This should make the kernel drop the
corrupt packets instead of trying to process them. If practical, you
could also try (temporarily) plugging in a different NIC.
I have, and now it's a matter of waiting...
Q: with rxcsum on, and a bad checksum packet is received, is it
dropped by the NIC? if not, then it somewhat explains the behaviour
changing the nic is tough, but if needed will be done.

We were hitting this quite a bit (also bce), and updated to a recent 7-
branch and it seems to be behaving better for now. Running 12 days so
far (which is better than what we had been seeing).
