PROBLEM: 3.6.0 kernel BUG at fs/dcache.c:967 during shutdown / restart

From: Neil Salstrom
Date: Sat Oct 06 2012 - 13:20:25 EST



I've not submitted a kernel bug before but I've read the bug reporting pages. I'll try to do my best and if you need more information please let me know. Please feel free to cc me on the answer or if you have questions.

I'm using Linux Mint 13 (64 bit) on AMD hardware with a self compiled 3.6.0 kernel for my MythTV HTPC.

Kernel version: Linux version 3.6.0 (gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) ) #1 SMP Tue Oct 2 15:34:46 PDT 2012

CPU: model name : AMD A6-3500 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics

If you need any other system variables please let me know and I can get those as well.

Upon shutdown or restart (from either the hard button on the case or a "sudo shutdown -r now" the system crashes and does not actually shut down. I can ssh in to the system and a dmesg shows the following:
