This is an interaction of the rmap vm patch (included in -ac) and the nVidia
binary driver. I have run into this myself, tho it doesn't usually cause a
lockup for me. (instead, it puts kswapd in the Z state (it aparrently never
respawns), and makes shutting down a PITA.))

Mind you, this is a bug in the nVidia driver, not the linux kernel, where it
pulls a behaviour that never was really correct before, but did work. This
bug truly needs to be reported to nVidia.

Not having that specific kernel tree on my system atm, I can't seem to find
the line that is BUG()'ing. But iirc, it's in this set


if (page->buffers)
BUG();
if (page->mapping)
BUG();
if (!VALID_PAGE(page))
BUG();
if (PageLocked(page))
BUG();
if (PageActive(page))
BUG();
page->flags &= ~((1<<PG_referenced) | (1<<PG_dirty));


and is the (page->mapping) test.

please, check your tree for the correct line (102 of page_alloc.c) to verify
this, and then pass it along to nVidia.

Only he isnt using the Nvidia driver. Somehow he got a page that should
not have been blown away because someone still had maps to it.
