2.6.15-rc1-git crashes in kswapd

[Jens Axboe]

Hi,

Running some disk tests on a box here (which has always been stable),
crashes in kswapd after the oom killer has triggered. It appears to be
calling wakeup_kswapd() with zone == NULL. Recent __alloc_pages()
"cleanup" perhaps not functionally equivelant?
