Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008

[Sander <sander@humilis.net>]

Hello,

I get the following error if I edit fstab with vi on a fresh btrfs
filesystem. vi Segfaults at saving the file.

# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda2
# mount /mnt/
# cd /
# find . -xdev | cpio -vdump /mnt
# vi /mnt/etc/fstab
Segmentation fault

This also happens with a 'cp -a':

# cd /mnt/
# cp etc/fstab tmp/
# cp etc/fstab tmp/
# cp -a etc/fstab tmp/
Segmentation fault

And 'ls -l'

# cd /mnt/
# ls tmp/
bla  fstab  network.configured
# ls -l tmp/
Segmentation fault

Kernel config:
CONFIG_BTRFS_FS=y
CONFIG_BTRFS_FS_POSIX_ACL=y

(I'll try without ACL now, but takes about an hour to compile the
kernel).

This kernel is a patched 2.6.33-rc1 from
git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-2.6-openrd.git

This error also happens if I remove linux-2.6-openrd/fs/btrfs/ and copy
btrfs-unstable/fs/btrfs/ (latetst as of yesterday and this morning). I'm
not sure if that is allowed though.

# mkfs.btrfs -V
mkfs.btrfs, part of Btrfs Btrfs v0.19

The system is Debian Sid on an Openrd-client (ARM). The ssd is an Intel
X25-E.

I didn't find a similar bugreport.

	With kind regards, Sander
