I recently turned on locking diagnostics for a Dell Latitude D600 laptop, which
requires a 32-bit kernel. In the log I found the following:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/khugepaged.c:655
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 20, name: khugepaged
1 lock held by khugepaged/20:

I have no idea when this problem was introduced. Of course, I will test any
proposed fixes.
Thanks,
