A colleague here has discovered that this crash is repeatable, but goes
away when the radeon driver is disabled.

Are you using that driver?

No, I'm not... I use the vesafb driver. Do you think disabling this could
cure the Oops?

It might.  Could you test it please?

I will, but currently I compile 2.6.0-test8. I want to try if this works...
I also want to try test8-mm1 without the -Os patch, you never know... ;-)

There's nothing in -mm which touches the inode list management code, so a
random scribble or misbehaving driver is likely.

Yes, or some part of the kernel compiled false...
(After some problems with erlier gcc's I don't trust my curent 3.3.1 that 
much...)

Btw. a similar Oops at the same place occours when the uhci-hcd module is
unloaded...

How similar?

Very similar (I think it came from deactivate_super(), too), but it seems not 
to be logged...
