Hmm, I met a similar problem, on i386 2.6.29.

The more interesting thing is that the normal boot is fine but a kexec boot
will have this BUG_ON (about 50% chance), even 'irqpoll' doesn't help...

My guess is that maybe some driver failed to request_irq during kexec
boot, but I can't figure out which driver it is... Note, vector number
is 0x79.
