Gaah. Martin Michlmayr reported that it apparently fixes his ARM corruption. Now, admittedly I already suspected the issues might be different (if only because of the UP vs SMP/PREEMPT case), but I really had my hopes up after Martin's report, because if anything, _his_ issue might have been a superset of your problem (while obviously any subtle SMP races you might be seeing are definitely not an issue in his case). Oh well. I think the ARM case is enough of a reason to apply those patches (if it hadn't made any difference at all, I'd have waited until after 2.6.20), and we'll just have to continue on the SMP PREEMPT angle.
