Without the "Code:" line it's hard to tell what happened...

Well that's strange. It's here in mm/filemap.c line 2201:

        /*
         * For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC
         */
        if (likely(status >= 0)) {
                if (unlikely((file->f_flags & O_SYNC) ||
IS_SYNC(inode))) { <===
                        if (!a_ops->writepage || !is_sync_kiocb(iocb))
                                status = generic_osync_inode(inode, mapping,
                                                OSYNC_METADATA|OSYNC_DATA);
                }
        }

ebp holds the value of 'inode' and it's obviously wrong (it's also the same
as 'written', which is in ebx.) So when it tries to read inode->i_sb, it
dies.

If you can, post the file mm/filemap.o from your build directory to some
website.
And do 'make mm/filemap.s' and post that file too.
