Re: Kernel 2.4.19-pa6 - can't login.

[Richard Nairn <richard@nairnconsulting.ca>]

Last working kernel was 2.4.18-32, that came witht he debian install. I
have no problem with that one. I can load into if fine, the new one has the
HIL support that I want. The only thing I really notice is that there
is a line with "kernel BUG at slab.c:1130!"

The corresponding part out of mm/slab.c is:

 /*
    * The test for missing atomic flag is performed here, rather than
    * the more obvious place, simply to reduce the critical path length
    * in kmem_cache_alloc(). If a caller is seriously mis-behaving they
    * will eventually be caught here (where it matters).
    */
     if (in_interrupt() && (flags & SLAB_LEVEL_MASK) != SLAB_ATOMIC)
            BUG();
