It did come through, and I replied ;)
The below post-2.6.23-rc1 patch should fix it.
commit b8c1c5da1520977cb55a358f20fc09567d40cad9 Author: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Date: Tue Jul 24 12:02:40 2007 -0700
slab: correctly handle __GFP_ZERO
Use the correct local variable when calling into the page allocator. Local `flags' can have __GFP_ZERO set, which causes us to pass __GFP_ZERO into the page allocator, possibly from illegal contexts. The page allocator will later do prep_zero_page()->kmap_atomic(..., KM_USER0) from irq contexts and will then go BUG.
