Hopefully the panic is just due to this warning 0x700 program check hitting at a bad time. We could always adjust the debug check but maybe something like this would keep those bits clear which might be cleaner.
Thanks for the patch Nick. The test runs to completion without any kernel warning/crash. Thanks -Sachin
