Parag, thanks. I reproduced this bug with your kernel config on
2.6.23-rc3 and verified it does not happen on latest git. I inspected
memory after the crash and determined the problem was patching of
instructions went awry. Chris in the meantime fixed a bug with patching
instructions, and the change from 100% apocalyptic failure to 100%
unequivocal success has convinced me that was the same bug.
