I am also receiving a similar oops in a call to suspend_targets on
bootup.

Alasdiar,
Based on your previous patch
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112112298922766&w=2

How is suspend_targets suppose to protect against the NULL value now being
passed in. or is something else going on here?
