Right: that's what you would expect for corruption.
Was this by the way an SMP setup? If so, could you try the following
patch (based on a previous patch by Olaf Kirch) and that I sent to Linus
earlier today. It fixes an issue that could on occasion lead to some
pretty nasty corruption issues.
I don't think SMP can explain all the corruption issues though, as
I've also been seeing wierdness on my laptop.
Cheers,
Trond
