I found that SLAB breaking supsned and cpu-hotplug on my PC. I didn't
get to bisect it, so i think it is just the part of SLAB. At the moment
i converted my kernel to SLUB and it working just fine, about 10
suspends and no reboot or crush ... it ist a record for my PC.
Easy way to reproduce is to compile SLAB kernel and
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
other work around to make my PC working stable are kernel options: nosmp
or mem=1024M
