I just found out (with the help of the crash utility and Dave A.) that
Robert's percpu struct nmi clashes with the exception entry point .nmi.
I only see this problem in 2.6.36, so I am not sure what changed with
regards to compiler flags to confuse variables with text segments.
But renaming the percpu struct nmi to nmidon fixed the problem for me (I
am open to other suggestions :-) ).
Regarding your reiserfs, what was the variable's name?
Cheers,
Don
