Subject: [BUG] rt_worker_func panics on my Asus motherboard

Hi LKML,
I've got an Asus P5BV-C/4L motherboard - somewhat badly supported
pre-2.6.25. Debian and Ubuntu stable refused to boot their install CDs
on it...but I digress.

I couldn't run 2.6.24 on it - it hung forever on initializing the SATA
ports. So I booted a GIT kernel (Git from May 31st at around 10 PM),
and hurray, it worked correctly.

Unfortunately, recently, the server went down. I turned on the
monitor, and a wonderful panic greeted me (scrolled a few lines off
the top, "of course"). I did not have a good camera handy, but I can
transcribe it in parts as requested. Below is the call trace:

[<ffffffff803b8582>]rt_worker_func+0x0/0x16c
[<ffffffff8023dc95>]run_workqueue+0x7b/0x103
[<ffffffff8023e533>]worker_thread+0xd5/0xe0
[<ffffffff80240d19>]autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e
[<ffffffff8023e45e>]worker_thread+0x0/0xe0
[...]

My kernel config can be found on acm.jhu.edu/~rercola/astrolabe-config.gz

Any additional information I can provide, I will be more than willing
to. I've linked this to one or two questionable pieces of networking
hardware I have laying around, so I can reproduce it freely.

Thanks to anyone who can shed light on this!
