Thanks.
I produced a cleanly applying version of it for 2.6.22.14.
Vincent, please apply this patch so we can know which file in sysfs
these oopses are happening with.

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...l.org>
Display the most-recently-opened sysfs file's name when oopsing.

Build fix
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de>
Modified to make the api call cleaner, and available to all arches if
need be. Also added it to x86-64's crash dump message.
