Yes, I've found 3 more reports for __d_lookup on kerneloops.org, first
seen for 2.6.25-rc5-git5.

Well, I was reading mail...and suddenly alpine complained that the imap
server was gone - and indeed "imap" was in the Oops message. But apart

No, it's loaded, but it was not in use.

There's ext2/3/4, jfs, xfs, reiserfs (not reiser4) - the whole family.
The only oddball coming to mind is zd1211rw with its binary firmware. But
no SMP, no ACPI, no preempt...
