Hi Catalin,

Just got lucky and hit it again. This time it occurred without killing. 
Here's the splat:

unreferenced object 0xffff880003eda000 (size 8192):
   comm "Xorg", pid 1117, jiffies 4295143832 (age 34745.832s)
   hex dump (first 32 bytes):

     [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

The process 1117 is still alive. It is

root      1117  2.1  1.3 147484 28152 tty7     Ss+  09:55  13:02 
/usr/bin/X :0 vt7 -br -nolisten tcp -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-Tdu4bb


Actually, there now are several splats of a second kind, relating to 
i915 gem buffers (attached). This type of splat has been reported before in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/4/15
although that thread seems to be a dead end. Maybe these warnings have a 
common source?

What would be a good next step?

With kind regards,

Wouter Koolen
