Summary:                    hang when sending request to netlink socket on AVR32
NGW100 dev kit
Description: 
The attached file hangs (and produces a soft lockup) on Atmel's AVR32-based
NGW100 dev kit.

The same code was tested on my Ubuntu x86 box and exits without error.

Using gdb, I can see that it just hangs at the following:-

57        if (send(fd, n, n->nlmsg_len, 0) < 0) {
(gdb) __libc_send (sockfd=3, buffer=0x7ff38a24, len=17, flags=0) at
libc/inet/socketcalls.c:248
248    _syscall4(ssize_t, __libc_send, int, sockfd, const void *, buffer,
size_t, len, int, flags);
