Probably you have not enabled kmemcheck in the kernel configuration?

The i915 driver with 82865G chipset works strange for quite a long time (since 2.6.37???)
The machine which causes problem uses this chipset.
Another one which works good with 2.6.39.1 (I write this message on it) uses: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

In my last message
( https://groups.google.com/group/kernelarchive/browse_thread/thread/adaeb363d2eadf24/559b1fd44876e4a6 )
I've reported some problems even with HT switched off,
but maybe it is associated with problems related to using both kmemcheck and perf, as reported e.g. here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/26/83
