This has cropped up from time to time in the last few Fedora
kernels, by several users. I just got another report that it's
still a problem on 2.6.15rc7 based kernels (so likely .15 final too).

 kernel: kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:486!

The BUG it's hitting is the BUG_ON(page_mapcount(page) < 0); in page_remove_rmap()

anyone with any ideas wtf happened here ?

shortly after hitting this, the users usually report thing likes like ...

kernel: Bad page state at free_hot_cold_page (in process 'kswapd0', page c1152360)
kernel: flags:0x80000010 mapping:00000000 mapcount:-1 count:0

In no examples seen have there been binary modules loaded, and no obvious
signs of hardware failure (some of them have run memtest86 with no problems found)
