hm, the only outright Geode related commit was:

d6c585a: x86: geode: Mark mfgpt irq IRQF_TIMER to prevent resume failure

the jpg at:

is very out of focus - but what i could decypher suggests a
pagefault crash in the VFS code, in generic_delete_inode().

Which could be a VFS bug, or a filesystem bug, or some unrelated
memory corruption hitting the inode data structure.
