Still crashes in LTP on x86_64:
(introduced in previous release)

What a mess. A doublefault inside an NMI watchdog timeout. I think. It's
hard to see. Some CPUs are stuck on a CPU scheduler lock, others seem to
be stuck in flush_tlb_others. One of these could be a consequence of the
other, or both could be a consequence of something else.

OK, well the latest one seems cleaner, on -rc3-mm1.

Just has the double fault, with no NMI watchdog timeouts. Not that
it means any more to me, but still ;-) mtest01 seems to be able to
reproduce this every time, but I don't have an appropriate box here
to diagnose it with (this was a 4x Opteron inside IBM), and it's
definitely something in -mm that's not in mainline.

Andy, any chance you could do another run on elm3b6 of ltp with:
2.6.17-rc3 + http://test.kernel.org/patches/2.6.17-rc3-mm1-64
