This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.24.  Please don't
close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.

This is probably fixed by:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=00e962c5408b9f2d0bebd2308673fe982cb9a5fe

I have asked Kamalesh to confirm.

I have tested the 2.6.25-rc3-git4 kernel and this commit seems to have fixed the kernel oops.
