Bernd Walter told me that the following panic could be the IPv6 neighbourhood 
detection, so I removed INET6 from the kernel and now the 60min reboot 
doesn't occur anymore.
I haven't assigned any IPv6 address while Berd had, and only I have the panic 
so it seems to happen only if one has unconfigured IPv6 interfaces.

Hope this helps, find attached my kernel conf.
