Yeah, this is extremely likely to be the source of the warning.
The warning should be harmless, however.

It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from. Too bad,
lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't
go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace?
The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess
this is the case. Yep, seems like it.
This looks relevant:

Fix an incompatible pointer type warning on x86_64 compilations.
early_memtest() is passing a u64* to find_e820_area_size() which is expecting
an unsigned long. Change t_start and t_size to unsigned long as those are
also 64-bit types on x88_64.

Joy - I so love entry.S
Best I can make of it:
syscall_exit_work
resume_userspace
DISABLE_INTERRUPTS
(no TRACE_IRQS_OFF)
work_pending
work_notifysig
do_notify_resume()
do_signal()
get_signal_to_deliver()
try_to_freeze()
refrigerator()
task_lock() -> check_flags() -> BANG
The normal path is:
syscall_exit_work
resume_userspace
DISABLE_INTERRUPTS
restore_all
TRACE_IRQS_IRET
iret
No idea why that would not warn..

Page faults in kernel address space between PAGE_OFFSET up to
VMALLOC_START should not try to map as vmalloc.
Fix rarely endless page faults inside mount_block_root for root
filesystem at boot time.
All 32bit kernels up to 2.6.25 can fail into this hole.
I can not present this under native linux kernel. I see, that the 64bit
has fixed the problem. I copied the same lines into 32bit part.
Recorded debugs are from coLinux kernel 2.6.22.18 (virtualisation):
http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/testing/pfn-check-0.7.3/20080410-antinx/bug16-recursive-page-fault-endless.txt
The physicaly memory was trimmed down to 192MB to better catch the bug.
More memory gets the bug more rarely.
Details, how every x86 32bit system can fail:
Start from "mount_block_root",
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/init/do_mounts.c#L297
There the variable "fs_names" got one memory page with 4096 bytes.
Variable "p" walks through the existing file system types. The first
string is no problem.
But, with the second loop in mount_block_root the offset of "p" is not
at beginning of page, the offset is for example +9, if "reiserfs" is the
first in list.
Than calls do_mount_root, and lands in sys_mount.
Remember: Variable "type_page" contains now "fs_type+9" and not contains
a full page.
The sys_mount copies 4096 bytes with function "exact_copy_from_user()":
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1540
Mostly exist pages after the buffer "fs_names+4096+9" and the page fault
handler was not called. No problem.
In the case, if the page after "fs_names+4096" is not mapped, the page
fault handler was called from http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1320
The do_page_fault gots an address 0xc03b4000.
It's kernel address, address >= TASK_SIZE, but not from vmalloc! It's
from "__getname()" alias "kmem_cache_alloc".
The "error_code" is 0. "vmalloc_fault" will be call:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L332
"vmalloc_fault" tryed to find the physical page for a non existing
virtual memory area. The macro "pte_present" in vmalloc_fault()
got a next page fault for 0xc0000ed0 at:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L282
No PTE exist for such virtual address. The page fault handler was trying
to sync the physical page for the PTE lockup.
This called vmalloc_fault() again for address 0xc000000, and that also
was not existing. The endless began...
In normal case the cpu would still loop with disabled interrrupts. Under
coLinux this was catched by a stack overflow inside printk debugs.

Minor source code cleanup of page flags in mm/page_alloc.c.
Move the definition of the groups of bits to page-flags.h.
The purpose of this clean up is that the next patch will

Commit 30f2f0eb4bd2c43d10a8b0d872c6e5ad8f31c9a0 ("block: do_mounts -
accept root=<non-existant partition>") extended blk_lookup_devt() to be
able to look up partitions that had not yet been registered, but in the
process made the assumption that the '&block_class.devices' list only
contains disk devices and that you can do 'dev_to_disk(dev)' on them.
That isn't actually true. The block_class device list also contains the
partitions we've discovered so far, and you can't just do a
'dev_to_disk()' on those.
So make sure to only work on devices that block/genhd.c has registered
itself, something we can test by checking the 'dev->type' member. This
makes the loop in blk_lookup_devt() match the other such loops in this
file.
[ We may want to do an alternate version that knows to handle _either_
whole-disk devices or partitions, but for now this is the minimal fix
for a series of crashes reported by Mariusz Kozlowski in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/25/25

In 2.6.26, we added some support for send with invalidate work
requests, including a device capability flag to indicate whether a
device supports such requests. However, the support was incomplete:
the completion structure was not extended with a field for the key
contained in incoming send with invalidate requests.
Full support for memory management extensions (send with invalidate,
local invalidate, fast register through a send queue, etc) is planned
for 2.6.27. Since send with invalidate is not very useful by itself,
just remove the IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV bit before the 2.6.26 final
release; we will add an IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS bit in 2.6.27,
which makes things simpler for applications, since they will not have
quite as confusing an array of fine-grained bits to check.

The ehea driver was recently changed[1] to use walk_memory_resource() to
detect the system's memory layout. However, walk_memory_resource() is
available only when memory hotplug is enabled. So CONFIG_EHEA was
made to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG [2], but it is inappropriate for a

During the next merge window, pci_name()'s return value will become
const, so use the new dev_set_name() instead to avoid the warning (from
linux-next):

When building a signal or a ucontext, we can incorrectly set the MSR_VEC
bit of the kernel pt_regs->msr before returning to userspace if the task
-ever- used VMX.
This can lead to funny result if that stack used it in the past, then
"lost" it (ie. it wasn't enabled after a context switch for example)
and then called get_context. It can end up with VMX enabled and the
registers containing values from some other task.

Commit 73f20e58b1d586e9f6d3ddc3aad872829aca7743 ("FAT_VALID_MEDIA():
remove pointless test") wrongly added the new fat_valid_media() function
to the userspace-visible part of include/linux/msdos_fs.h
Move it to the part of include/linux/msdos_fs.h that is not exported to
userspace.

On a 64-bit architecture, if ib_umem_get() is called with a size value
that is so big that npages is negative when cast to int, then the
length of the page list passed to get_user_pages(), namely
min_t(int, npages, PAGE_SIZE / sizeof (struct page *))
will be negative, and get_user_pages() will immediately return 0 (at
least since 900cf086, "Be more robust about bad arguments in
get_user_pages()"). This leads to an infinite loop in ib_umem_get(),
since the code boils down to:
while (npages) {
ret = get_user_pages(...);
npages -= ret;
}
Fix this by taking the minimum as unsigned longs, so that the value of
npages is never truncated.
The impact of this bug isn't too severe, since the value of npages is
checked against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, so a process would need to have an
astronomical limit or have CAP_IPC_LOCK to be able to trigger this,
and such a process could already cause lots of mischief. But it does
let buggy userspace code cause a kernel lock-up; for example I hit
this with code that passes a negative value into a memory registartion
function where it is promoted to a huge u64 value.

use_mm() was changed to use switch_mm() instead of activate_mm(), since
then nobody calls (and nobody should call) activate_mm() with
PF_BORROWED_MM bit set.
As Jeff Dike pointed out, we can also remove the "old != new" check, it is
always true.

Packet sending is driven by two flags, tx_ready and tx_queued.
It was possible, that there were queued data for sending and
hardware was flagged as blocked but in fact it was not.
The tx_queued was indicator but should be really a counter else
first fragmented packet resets tx_queued flag, but there may be
pending packets which do not get sent.
New semantics:
tx_ready - set, if hw is ready to send packet, no packet is being
transferred right now
set the flag right at the place where data are copied
into hw memory and not earlier without checking if it
was succesful
tx_queued - count of enqueued packets, including fragments

If the user tries to read from a position that is not a multiple of 8, or
read a number of bytes that is not a multiple of 8, they have passed an
invalid argument to read, for the purpose of reading these files. It's
not an IO error because we didn't encounter any trouble finding the data
they asked for.
