avahi-daemon hangs on avr32 / buildroot

Description

Building the standard avahi package under buildroot (on AVR32 platforms, mine is Atmel's NGW100 dev kit), avahi-daemon hangs while sending out data to a socket.

I have attached an strace output for someone to help me diagnose the problem.

Thanks Mark

The output gets to this point and then I get ... 

BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s! [:428]

I can still ping the target device, so it would appear that just avahi-daemon has stopped.

We send a request to a netlink socket which apparently freezes on your setup. Netlink is a facility to get information from the kernel, in this case the network configuration.

There's probably a kernel bug you are triggering, which is unrelated to Avahi.
