Jan, may I ask one more favor? Since this might take a little
time to run down, can you open a bug report on
bugzilla.kernel.org <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/>, and copy in the symptomology and the
bisect results? It will get assigned to Trond, and he can
pass it to me.

The problem looks like how we're using a page_frag_cache to
handle the record marker buffers, but I'm not sure what the
proper solution is yet.
