Thanks.

Greg, can you please interpret this?  What does this BUG:

const unsigned char * sysfs_get_name(struct sysfs_dirent *sd)
{
	struct attribute * attr;
	struct bin_attribute * bin_attr;
	struct relay_attribute * rel_attr;
	struct sysfs_symlink  * sl;

	if (!sd || !sd->s_element)
		BUG();

tell us?

I assume the bug was introduced by one of the device mapper patches:

device-mapper-snapshot-fix-origin_write-pending_exception-submission.patch
device-mapper-snapshot-replace-sibling-list.patch
device-mapper-snapshot-fix-invalidation.patch
drivers-md-dm-raid1c-fix-inconsistent-mirroring-after-interrupted.patch
dm-remove-sector_format.patch
dm-make-sure-queue_flag_cluster-is-set-properly.patch
md-make-sure-queue_flag_cluster-is-set-properly-for-md.patch
