I can't reproduce this with Linus' git head on User-mode Linux running on
UP i386. Or, can you reproduce this at will? Any local modifications? Can
we see your .config, please.

Yes, i can reproduce this at will, no local modifications, my system
is amd dual
x86_64, i have attached my .config to the first email of this thread,
and also mentioned
that some CONFIG_DEBUG_ options are set, including one related to slab
debugging.

Also, by "User mode Linux" you mean linux kernel that runs as a user
process on your system?

Or.
