The image says the RIP is at kthread_data + 0xb

That implies something went wrong within the workqueue or kthread
systems, I've cc'd linux-kernel, but it's a bit of a vague thing to go
on and could conceivably be a hardware issue (or some weird thread
interaction in linux-next).

The first question would be "does it happen in vanilla 3.6"?

So just to CC LKML, works in vanilla 3.6.0, happens in both -next & -mm,
tried compiling with both gcc 4.6.3 & 4.7.1.
