What's in the patchset you're testing? Is it Sean's series + my patch,
or just my patch? In case it's the later I'm having hard times trying to
see how this can be related, but in case it's the former the fact that
we do stuff a little bit differently on kexec may actually be triggering
the issue above. I still think that it's not causing it, just
triggering.
