[7.5.] Other information that might be relevant to the problem
(please look in /proc and include all information that you
think to be relevant):
This problem seems to occur when writing to the dac960 array usually. I dont
know if that is coincidence or if the dac960 is the problem?
[X.] Other notes, patches, fixes, workarounds:
I've reported this (or a similar) oops several other times. See:

Nobody seems to have any ideas on how to fix / whats causing it.
