I've been seeing a variety of strange behaviour since
9d0498a2bf7455159b317f19531a3e5db2ecc9c4 too (I found I could narrow it
down in http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/24/280 but the change mentioned
there doesn't seem to help others). I've filed
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29857 which summarises the
different strange behaviour that I've seen generated and the steps I've
used to reproduce them. Unfortunately this week I'm not going to have
much time for the tests I was able to do last week.
