I had pretty much all lock debugging options enabled except PROVE_RCU.

Yep, even my mom says I'm good at breaking things :) But seriously,
thanks - means a lot coming from you.

And I got an oops again, this time the #GP from couple of days ago.

<thinking out loud>

I'm starting to think that maybe there could be something wrong with the
machine I'm running it on. Especially since there are only two people
who reported this issue, Steinar and me, so how probable is it that
maybe those two machines have failing RAM module somewhere? Or some
other data corrupting thing? Although I should be getting mchecks...
Hmm...

</thinking out loud>

Im going to run the stress test on 2.6.33.2 to verify whether this is
actually software-related. Just in case. Oh, yes, I almost forgot, the
latest and greatest in the world of oopsies:
