Subject: init_emergency_isa_pool calling mempool_create in non-sleeping context

I just saw this when booting a current linux-2.6.git kernel (3fe0344faf7fdcb158bd5c1a9aec960a8d70c8e8).
.config and full bootlog attached.

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/jeremy/git/linux/mm/slab.c:3029
