The first report(thread starter) using 2.6.19.1 was with preemp
fantasio:~/tmp/linux-2.6.19.1$ fgrep -i preempt .config
# CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is not set
# CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BKL=y
The Oops below has:
fantasio:~/tmp/linux-2.6.19.2$ fgrep -i preempt .config
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y
# CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set
# CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set
