yep, the patch below got it all going and it passed 5 hours of testing
already. Thanks,

commit 7dbceaf9bb68919651901b101f44edd5391ee489
Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
Date: Fri Jun 20 07:28:24 2008 +0200

x86, bitops: make constant-bit set/clear_bit ops faster, adapt, clean up

fix integration bug introduced by "x86: bitops take an unsigned long *"
which turned "(void *) + x" into "(long *) + x".

small cleanups to make it more apparent which value get propagated where.
