FYI, the attached config hangs in the SLOB code, on 32-bit x86 laptop
(dual core). No log available from that box.

Is this one of your randconfigs? I take it switching from SLOB to SLUB
fixes it?

Yeah, a bootable one.

havent tried it. If you cannot reproduce it with the config i sent i can
try to dig deeper. That box is not particularly easy to debug.

Boots fine on my 32-bit x86 laptop.

Thanks, Pekka. I've been too busy to experiment with this. Ingo,
anything interesting about your laptop? How much memory do you have?

Side note: SLOB hasn't really changed for a while so I suspect Ingo is
hitting some once in a blue moon type of old bug.

That's possible - although as of late i'm generally finding new regressions,
the old once-in-a-blue-moon races i've triggered already. (the roughly half a
million random bootups i've done in the last 2 years in -tip testing went a
long way in rooting them out)
I'll try to figure this one out in a few days hopefully - the laptop is not
available for testing right now for other reasons.
