It sounds like Stephen has provided you the info you needed so not doing any extra testing now, but I figured I'd chime in that I hit problems this morning with linux-next and it appears to be the same thing. I did a revert of 9984d7394618df9 and (plus a revert of a handful of patches to the same file) and problems are resolved. The failure case is really weird in that everything works well booting to a simple /bin/bash but fails when you do more complex tasks. Anyway: If you need some extra testing feel free to CC me. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
