Yeh, the stack is consistent; this time around it's an 'ar' in a kernel
build:

iostat is showing something odd, most devices are at 0,
except for 3 of the dm's that are stuck at 100% utilisation with
apparently nothing going on:

avg-cpu:  %user   %nice %system %iowait  %steal   %idle

....

dm-20 is the /dev/mapper/main-more which is the RAID on which the
fs runs, 16 and 17 are main-more_rmeta_0 and main-more_rimage_0
so something screwy is going on there.
