Subject[bug, acpi] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, swapper/1, ACPI Exception (utmutex-0263): AE_BAD_PARAMETER

-tip auto-testing started triggering this spinlock corruption message
yesterday:

[ 4.008213] initcall acpi_event_init+0x0/0x74 returned 0 after 0 msecs

i have found the AE_BAD_PARAMETER in older logs a well, but the spinlock
corruption is new and nothing in that area is changed by -tip so i
suspect it's a mainline problem as well.

it's not reproducible so it's not bisectable - it happened a few times
sporadically, but on a repeated reboot with the same bzImage it does not
reproduce. The config, full bootlog and bzImage can be found at:

http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad
http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/log-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad
http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/bzImage-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad

(more info about the system on request.)

NOTE, this is with the following boot parameters:

maxcpus=1 nosmp no_hz=off highres=0 nmi_watchdog=0 noapic nolapic_timer
hpet=disable idle=mwait idle=poll highmem=512m nopat notsc acpi=off
pci=nomsi

the bzImage i've uploaded adds most of those boot parameters
automatically. These boot parameters worked fine in the past.

given that it involves acpi_rtc_init:acpi_rtc_init(), one suspect would
be this change:

| commit e1094bfa26e5e94af2fea79e004614dbce42b008
| Author: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com>
| Date: Wed May 14 11:32:59 2008 +0800
|
| ACPI: Disable Fixed_RTC event when installing RTC handler

given that it's not bisectable, i can only "slow-test" any patch: i.e. i
can apply any patch and report whether the spinlock corruption has
occured after 2 days of continuous testing.
