Running a 'usex -e' load [http://people.redhat.com/~anderson/usex/] on
2.6.21-rc5-mm4 on ia64, I see the following:

Looks like get_ptrace_state(), called from ptrace_report_syscall calls
rcu_read_lock() which disables preemption.  Corresponding
rcu_read_unlock() will be from put_ptrace_state() from ptrace_report()
at end of report.  However, ia64 needs to sync register backing store,
and this requires access to process vm.  get_user_pages' use of
cond_sched() is tripping the "scheduling while atomic" bug.
