This has already been discussed on the LKML. Here's the thread:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=102348161100006&r=1&w=2

I posted the following message on this issue:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=102348249521519&w=2

As I had said earlier, I've seen this happen before on both i386 and
PPC machines.

Cheers,

Karim
