Subject: irq_desc_lock_class is held when it is freed

I have an hp dl785g5 which is unable to successfully run
2.6.29-0.66.rc3.fc11.x86_64 or 2.6.29-rc2-next-20090126.  During bootup
(early in userspace daemons starting) I get the below BUG, which quickly
renders the machine dead.  I assume it is because sparse_irq_lock never
gets released when the BUG kills that task.  But maybe it dies for some
other reason, but the machine is dead, gotta hit the vitual power
button.

setting CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC=n allowed me to successfully boot
the linux-next kernel.  2.6.28 booted and worked fine (although it
doesn't have this config option, so that isn't surprising.)

attached you will find the linux-next config and dmesg output from the
machine in question when booted using linux-next WITHOUT the
MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC.  The only difference between the working and broken
config is if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set or not.

Please if there is anything I can collect, test, or do, don't hesitate
to let me know.
