[linux kernel 2.6.2-bk3]: Bad page state at prep_new_page

[Jose Luis Domingo Lopez]

Hi:

While downloading my daily spam^Wemail through a slow 56K modem, and
trying to tell spam apart from ham using spamassassin I have suffered a
kernel failure, or at least X stopped responding, and nothing but SysRq
worked (didn't try remote pinging or accessing the box though).

Linux kernel version is 2.6.2-bk3 compiled with gcc 3.2.3 from Debian
Sid. I got the following in the logs, and the system continued to work
for a while, but in the end it stopped. I tried several SysRq+T and
SysRq+M, but nothing went to the logs. However, SysRq+B worked.
