"BAD" is a bisection point, as per
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt.  So
just 2.6.18-rc6+origin.patch exhibits the failure.  That is mainline.

hm, that wouldn't be good.

Enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE will make the fourth column in the
sysrq-T output display the minimum-ever free stack space for each task.

sleep         S ffff810100f0bea8     0 18893  22372                     (NOTLB)

                                     ^ this number.
