This happens because something in the kernel has a reference on a 
netdevice and is not properly
listening for netdev unregister events in the kernel or is not properly 
releasing the reference
when it gets the event.

Do you have a network device called pimreg or something like that?  What 
type of
device is it (some special virtual interface?)

Thanks,
Ben
