Maybe it is of importance that the sqf file is located in the initramfs. The
kernel was panicking reliably with different sqf files, on different
hardware upon the mount command, with "unable to handle kernel paging
request". This was on 3.18.5. As soon as I compiled squashfs as a modules,
the problem went away.

If you need further details, please cc me directly, as I unsubscribed from
the list due to not being able to handle the massive load.

Well, I was trying to reproduce it. Upgraded to 3.18.6, built the kernel 
with static squashfs, and now it doesn't panic anymore.


Guess some fixes for 3.18.6 fixed this too. If somebody really, really 
cares, I could go through the whole procedure again with 3.18.6, but I 
guess, as it's gone now, this would be rather academeic.

Well, I will, if somebody bothers to actually look at it. Takes me some 
time to set everything up again for it. And it would be nice if you 
could cc me directly in the reply, as already mentioned, I'm not on the 
list and this copy-paste stuff from marc.info is a bit a nuisance.
