What kernel version are you using?
Now is probably a good time to check your memory; the kernel should
never crash due to the behaviour of an application. Given where the
kernel BUG happened (most of the BUG() calls in page_alloc.c are sanity
checks) , and the fact that ImageMagick was using a large amount of
memory at the time, there's a good chance that your memory is flakey.
