The real question here is why the 0day system was even bothering to try
compiling and booting a patch from somebody who has a long record of failing
to do so with patches before submission.  Actually looking at the patch
in question shows that little or no thought or testing was done (hint:
look at it, and wonder in amazement why there's a dump_stack() call where
it is....)

In other words - how did this patch get into a tree that 0day listens to?
