Crash when suspending Lenovo T510 laptop (2.6.39.3)

[Jesper Juhl]

Hi

I just experienced a kernel crash when trying to suspend my Lenovo 
Thinkpad T510 (model 4384-GJG) laptop.

Normally I just shut the lid and the little moon icon lights up telling me 
that the laptop has suspended. This time was different; the moon icon 
didn't light up as it usually does, so I opened the lid again and found a 
kernel crash dump on the screen. The machine was completely dead at this 
point, so all I could do was take a photo of the screen - nothing had made 
it to the log files either (checked after a reboot).

The image I took of the screen with the crash info is available here:

The kernel version is 2.6.39.3
The kernel config is attached as '2.6.39.3-config.gz'
The distribution is Arch Linux 64bit.

Here is a partial transcript of the image (typed in manually, so check the 
image if you suspect an error - I also left out function addresses/offsets 
and other details before/after the backtrace to save me some typing, so 
check the image for the full details) :

I've not experienced this before with this kernel, nor with earlier or 
newer ones, so it's not exactely reproducible on demand, so it's anyones 
guess when this was introduced (or if it's been there for ages, just 
triggers rarely)...

One detail that may be relevant; normally when I suspend the laptop I do 
so before unplugging any cables or suspend after not having anything 
plugged in for ages (or at all). This time I was in a hurry, so I quickly 
unplugged the power, 3 usb cables and the ethernet cable and then quickly 
slammed the lid shut. Not sure if that has an impact on triggering this 
though. I tried reproducing that scenario 4-5 times, but the laptop 
suspended fine when I did that.

If you require further information then please let me know and I'll be 
happy to provide it. 

I'll of course try to submit more details if it happens again, but if 
someone has a good guess as to how to provoke it or an idea for a fix I'd 
sure like to know.
