Similar kernel Bug was reported for 2.6.23-rc2-mm1 at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/10/20 and the mm-dirty-balancing-for-tasks.patch was dropped from 2.6.23-rc2-mm2. And the same patch is in this -mm version, suspect whether is it the same patch triggering this Bug. BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s!
