With this patch, my Powermac (ppc32) spews 711 (I think)
warning messages during bootup. The first one looks like:
Calibrating delay loop... 1064.96 BogoMIPS
Mount-cache hash table entries: 512 (order: 0, 4096 bytes)
Badness in schedule at kernel/sched.c:2153
Call trace:

[000035fc] 0x35fc
and this goes on until:

The full dmesg is 322K, and is up at:

Most of the traces look something like the bottom one.
