Is this supposed to be a bug in 2.6.36 ? Firefox was running, but I 
wasn't browsing with it. The computer just locked up, first killing X. 
SysRq didn't work.

dereference at (null)

I can confirm the bug reported by Frederic.  The culprit is at:

        next->prev = prev;

in __skb_unlink().

Something must be putting NULL pointers in the skb list.

Let me know how I can be of further help.

Is it reproductible ?

On previous kernel (say 2.6.35) you never hit this bug ?

I can't trigger it on purpose, but it happened two nights in a row (I
don't have the previous backtrace though)

No.
