In this case it would be understandable - linux-raid is the correct
list :-)

OK, I'll push this to the top of my stack.....

It is a 'linear', not a 'raid 0' by the way.

On decoding the Oops, it seems to in which_dev called from
linear_mergeable_bvec. 
'hash' is NULL.  This is bads.
'block' seems to be 42, which is maybe a little bit surprising...

What is really strange is that when I disassemble the Code: (see
below), there is now "divl" instruction to match the "sector_div" in
which_dev.

So I'm somewhat perplexed.

What, exactly, are the sizes of hda1 and hdb1.  Knowing that might
help me see if anything else looks wrong.
