IMHO we can exclude reiserfs, at least the code must be clean. I'm on
2.4.19-rc5-aa1 w/reiserfs 3.6, which acts just the hell of a perfect
system. I'm serious. Of course it can be triggering.

We have to check
1. process kicking code
2. process killing code
3. memory allocation code
4. read/write code
