Subject: 2.6.20.3 AMD64 oops in CFQ code

This is a uniprocessor AMD64 system running software RAID-5 and RAID-10
over multiple PCIe SiI3132 SATA controllers.  The hardware has been very
stable for a long time, but has been acting up of late since I upgraded
to 2.6.20.3.  ECC memory should preclude the possibility of bit-flip
errors.

Kernel 2.6.20.3 + linuxpps patches (confined to drivers/serial, and not
actually in use as I stole the serial port for a console).

It takes half a day to reproduce the problem, so bisecting would be painful.

BackupPC_dump mostly writes to a large (1.7 TB) ext3 RAID5 partition.


Here are two oopes, a few minutes (16:31, to be precise) apart.
Unusually, it oopsed twice *without* locking up the system..  Usually,
I see this followed by an error from drivers/input/keyboard/atkbd.c:
                        printk(KERN_WARNING "atkbd.c: Spurious %s on %s. "
                               "Some program might be trying access hardware directly.\n",
emitted at 1 Hz with the keyboard LEDs flashing and the system
unresponsive to keyboard or pings.
(I think it was spurious ACK on serio/input0, but my memory may be faulty.)


If anyone has any suggestions, they'd be gratefully received.
