This one is a bit hard to reproduce but I've got it several times today and
after you've got it once, then all attempts to sync/umount result in the
same oops. It may or may not be related to inserting and removing network
drivers, generally inserting and removing the network interface a few times
will do the trick. Even SysRq 'S' produces the same oops, so once you've
got it, it's disk death time, although everything else on the machine works
fine, I used to network interface to transfer the oops out of the machine
before rebooting, at which time everything is lost (obviously as the drives
can't sync!!)
