Subject: 2.6.39-rc1 data corruption with rtorrent

Hi,

I hit an rtorrent data corruption issue again. But this time, rtorrent
seems to write data that were mmapped by other processes (in the
downloaded files, I found my data from Chromium and later the data
produced by the testing utility by Linus from
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/180). Unfortunately, I was so far
unable to reproduce the issue just with the testing utility.

I reverted to stable 2.6.38.2 for now as I don't feel like broadcasting
my private data via bittorrent.

Regards,
