Here are two patches that might to cure it (used to be in 2.6.15-rc5-mm1 but the cure accepted for the workqueues was to use alloc_percpu):
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@engr.sgi.com>
The workqueue structure can grow larger than 128k under 2.6.14-rc2 (with all debugging features enabled on 64 bit platforms) which will make kzalloc for workqueue structure entries fail. This patch increases the maximum slab entry size to 256K.
