This sync_buffers corruption is fixed by Jens' patch, which is present in test12-pre3.
However it is possible that the original list_head-based corruption which I reported will not be fixed by this patch. This is because none of the structure offsets match up with what I observed, and because Lawrence's sytem is "SCSI-only" - no SCSI drivers are headactive.
Lawrence, did you see this problem with test12-pre3? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
