Can you please post assembly of as_insert_request? You can get this by
doing 'objdump -d drivers/block/as-iosched.o | less' and copy & pasting
as_insert_request part.

I'm also trying to reproduce the oops but haven't succeeded yet. Does
the oops occur only if the disk is loaded while switching scheduler /
snoozing or does it happen regardless of disk load?

And one more thing. Can you please try the following program and see if
it causes the oops? The program simply writes 3, sleeps one second and
then writes 0. When redirected to the disk's power/state sysfs node, it
will make the disk sleep for 1 second and then wake it up.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int level = 3;
if (argc > 1)
level = atoi(argv[1]);
setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IONBF, 0);
printf("%d", level);
sleep(1);
printf("0");
return 0;
}

After compiling, do the following.

./a.out > /sys/block/hd?/device/power/state

Thanks. :-)
