The logs show: #v+ acpi_power-0363 [64] acpi_power_transition : Error transitioning device [CFAN] to D0 acpi_bus-0496 [63] acpi_bus_set_power : Error transitioning device [CFAN] to D0 acpi_thermal-0549 [62] acpi_thermal_active : Unable to turn cooling device [c12d2528] 'on' Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 876c33c4 [...] #v- (sometimes there's D3 in place of D0, depending on the trip points / temperature readings), and then the oops follows. Unfortunately, I can't provide the ksymoops output, as the kernel which the oops was logged on has been gone long since. Anyway, this is by no means reproducible, occurs quasi-randomly (more often when the machine is cold, possibly due to the fact that actual state transitions take place then), and causes various effects from keventd / ACPI subsystem locking to system hangs.
