Scheduling while atomic lockups, Reiser4, DAC960

[Berck E. Nash]

Linux luna 2.6.12-rc4-mm1 i686
Debian unstable, AMD Athlon

The error seems to occur with my reiser4 partition.   The physical
device is  an 8-disk RAID-0 array on a Mylex Extreme RAID 1100 using the
DAC960 driver.  The error is sometimes followed by a lockup, but not always.

Not sure if it's a hardware problem or kernel problem.

There's pages and pages of errors that look like this.  If there's
anything I can do to provide more information, I will gladly do so.

Just a user, not a hacker.  I'm not subscribed to the list, so cc's on
reply would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Berck
