           Summary: massive kernel spewage with DWARF2 unwinder errors
           Product: Fedora Core
           Version: fc6test2
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: normal
         Component: kernel
        AssignedTo: kernel-maint@redhat.com
        ReportedBy: netllama@gmail.com
         QAContact: bbrock@redhat.com
                CC: wtogami@redhat.com


Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.17-1.2517.fc6 and 2.6.17-1.2530.fc6

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot, and the fireworks begin early on at "checking if image is initramfs..."
2. Even after booting, there's a ton more spewage, seemingly at random when
doing things as simple as ssh/scp, and also when running the attached sysreport.

  
Actual results:

#######
checking if image is initramfs...

[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
---------------------------------------------
swapper/1 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&nc->lock){....}, at: [<ffffffff8020782c>] kmem_cache_free+0x1a1/0x26c

but task is already holding lock:
 (&nc->lock){....}, at: [<ffffffff8020b47e>] kfree+0x1b3/0x27e

other info that might help us debug this:

Expected results:
No spewage
