Can you remind us:
- your ARM is UP, right? Do you have PREEMPT on?
- This is probably a stupid question, but you did make sure that the
database was ok (with some rebuild command) and that you didn't have
preexisting corruption?

Anyway, the page_mkclean_one() fixes (along with _most_ things we've
looked at) shouldn't matter on UP, at least certainly not without PREEMPT.
