Easier way to recreate the bug would be to run the above mentioned scripts in parallel.

Zdenek, can you please check if the problem is still present/reproducible?

Well at this moment with current git tree 2.6.25-rc6 actually I've got the problem that after resume my MMC reader doesn't work at all.Yet I've not had time to bisect the kernel for problematic patch - will do in a short time - unless its already known issue?

I'm not sure if this problem is connected to MMC - but I can say but I've not notice this exact backtrace for some time - so maybe it is fixed.

This warning seems to be fixed - now I could see in the log just these messages:

But reported problem is not reproducible.
