Could you please describe, in super-simple steps, how one should go about reproducing it? Also, the entire strace output for both good and bad kernels might be useful.

Do you have time to do a git-bisect? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
