Every second I get following Debug message with kernel 2.5.66:

Debug: sleeping function called from illegal context at mm/slab.c:1723

This message was not present with 2.5.65. I am using the VESA VGA frame buffer
as following part of the boot.msg shows:

<6>vesafb: framebuffer at 0xe0000000, mapped to 0xd0800000, size 65536k
<6>vesafb: mode is 1024x768x16, linelength=2048, pages=0
<6>vesafb: protected mode interface info at c000:c2c0
<6>vesafb: scrolling: redraw
<6>vesafb: directcolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0
<6>fb0: VESA VGA frame buffer device

My .config file is attached.
