You're now the third person (schlicht@uni-mannheim.de, jeremy@goop.org) who reports that the weird oopses (usually in invalidate_list()) go away when the fbdev code is disabled.

Has anyone tried CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, see if that turns anything up? -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
