Lets see. According to the backtrace it seems that the kernel was not
able to write the buffer back to disk. The RH bug says that someone
unplugged the device without an unmount of the disk.

My question are:
- what were you doing by the time this happened?
- can you reproduce it (reliably)?
- Is this *new* meaning is there a kernel where did not happen?
