Once I actually tested the revert of just that on top of Linus' tree (commit d895cb1af1), things seem to be working much better. I've rebooted a dozen times without a lockup. The most I've seen it take on a kernel with that commit included is 3 reboots, so that's definitely at least an improvement. Now that I seem to have narrowed down which commit is broken, I'd be happy to test fixes, etc. Sorry for the noise from earlier today. josh
