Hello, Miles!
Thank you again for your continued testing!
I believe that this one has been fixed by commit 844b9a8707f, which was
added in v2.6.35-rc6. This commit added rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
to the list of rcu_dereference_check() conditions in the
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() macro.
Thanx, Paul
