Tracing through the nested inline functions:

prune_dcache
  prune_one_dentry
    __d_drop
      hlist_del_rcu
        __hlist_del

static inline void __hlist_del(struct hlist_node *n)
{
        struct hlist_node *next = n->next;
        struct hlist_node **pprev = n->pprev;
        *pprev = next;
        if (next)
                next->pprev = pprev;    <========== OOPS
}

next (in register eax) was not zero, but has only one bit set.
Looks like a bit flipped in memory.  Please run memtest86
overnight on the machine.
