This looks like network driver bug. Albert noticed a similar problem
with Intel's e1000 driver, when the kernel goes to halt. Patch is
simple. You have to comment the e1000_suspend call in notifier
routine. We should not suspend the e1000 controller, because it is
also used by the BMC.
It is also possible to fix it without modifying the driver, by
fiddling with the EEPROM power-management setting using ethtool. Tell
me what network card you have, I will help you.
