(There might still be the other oops due to the floppy sysfs files) Ingo, could you please add this patch in your CFS backport to 2.6.22 and older kernels? Thanks, -- kdump showed that the owner field had some junk value which caused the oops reported at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/12/10/113 . This patch sets the value of that field to NULL.
