While running the test12 kernel with the test11 arch/i386, I've trapped an
Oops message in my log. I'm not sure if it has something to do with using
the arch/i386 code from test11, but it seems necessary to post it since
test12 introduces changes to kswapd-bdflush.
I am currently running test11 since test12 gave problems later on
following this Oops.
