You probabily failed to provide one. :-)

I think my system is suffering from two problems:
1.) Panics caused by the page finger print code.
This has been fixed on the 7th when this code was backed out. So if
you updated during the weekend you won't have seen this problem
because none of your systems use that code.
2.) Panics caused by tmpfs.
The panic which I've posted this morning might be related to tmpfs.
Thomas Klausner who is not seeing panics any more isn't using it.
Peter Postma's and my system both use it and crash frequently.
The interesting question is therefore whether your system use "tmpfs"
or not.
Kind regards
