Subject: Oops while reading netdev stats from /proc/

hi,

this oops seems due to a system_call upon reading procfs; such function
seems in the arch/i386/kernel but I'm unclear who from the MAINTAINERS
would better handle this bug, hence I'm sending here.

Oops happend on X11 login (wdm+wmaker), apperently as soon as the wmapp
'wmnet' tried to read netdevice stats from procfs.

Pls see (hopefully all) relevant infos attached.
