Subject: [BISECTED] Removing BKL causes stack trace during early bootup

Hi guys.  This commit produces a non-fatal call trace very early during boot
on my dual-CPU amd64 machine (but not on my single-CPU x86):

commit 5e3d20a68f63fc5a310687d81956c3b96e488b84
Author: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...x.de>
Date:   Sun Jul 4 00:02:26 2010 +0200

     init: Remove the BKL from startup code

The trace whizzes by so fast that I can't read it, and the trace doesn't appear
in any of the logs.  Is there a way to capture such a trace, like maybe changing
it to a fatal error?

Thanks!
