Subject: 3.7-rc4: BUG: MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low!

Hi,

after upgrading from 3.6.0-08492-gd43 to 3.7.0-rc4 and running it for a
day or so, this happened:

[27148.965634] BUG: MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low!
[27148.967356] turning off the locking correctness validator.
[27148.968967] Call Trace:

The last message is repeated several times, see below. The machine
(PowerPC G4) is still up & running and no ill behaviour can be seen for
now. I still wonder if this would be a sign for trouble...

Christian.
