Solution Statement: Fix the UTTERLY DEADLY bug.

Oza: 
that BUG() is LEGAL. Kernel is not a problem there.
Somebody else outside of kernel/ARM (some other HW raises the bug), and send indication to kernel that I am not alive.
So kernel choose to CRASH ITSELF.

So that is legal crash and wanted Crash.

But after Crash, jiffies do not increment.


Regards,
-Oza
