I am seeing this identical problem on an Ubuntu Server 9.04 (Jaunty)
install, whenever there's a brief period of heavy network activity, the
network locks up for a minute, with NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (r8169):
transmit timed out in the logs, followed by a similar stack trace to the
above posters.

NIC is 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02)
    Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device e000

It's an on-board chipset on a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3 motherboard.
