On x86, there is no OOps, it just freezes. On ia64, I get a nice MCA

to the kernel's code path, the instruction pointer etc. in the MCA
state dump isn't terribly helpful.

Does that 0xf0000000 (on ia64) match any obvious address mapping of the null pointer -- like a dma mapping? I'm not sure that if the HID driver were to pass a null buffer pointer, it would be caught anywhere.
