The whole link structure is filled with slab poison. The link structure is embedded in the task struct stucture.
You mentioned that the last detach_pid() within __unhash_process oopsed. That means the reference count of the task structure was off by one, and the
put_task_struct(pid->task)
within
detach_pid(p,PIDTYPE_PGID);
freed the task structure.
The process was bash - does your bash use anything fancy, or plain boring single threaded app?
