[OOPS] 2.4.19rc2aa1 in page_cache_read

[Stuffed Crust]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3841 bytes --]

I was having VM oopsen with 2.4.19rc1aa1, so I upgraded to 2.4.19rc2aa1
to see if things were any better.  Apparently they aren't.

System uptime of about 60 hours.  P3-1G, 512M RAM.  Pretty standard
system.   This time it wasn't postgresql that got whacked, it was scp.

I'm probably going to fall back to 2.4.19rc3 soon.  This is a production
machine, so I can't reboot it that often...  The -aa kernel does
bring a number of benefits (and I'm hoping to not have to pull the bits
I want out; I hate rediffing things..)

Here's the ksymoops dump.  NULL dereference in the middle of
page_cache_read.

ksymoops 2.4.4 on i686 2.4.19-rc2aa1.  Options used
     -V (default)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)
     -l /proc/modules (default)
     -o /lib/modules/2.4.19-rc2aa1/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map-2.4.19-rc2aa1 (default)

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information.  I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc.  ksymoops -h explains the options.
