I'm also seeing this bug (almost exactly the original trace) on two physical servers since upgrading to 12.04 LTS. The same machines ran 10.04 LTS without any errors for over a year, and since I'm seeing the same BUG on both servers, I believe it to be related to the 3.2.0 kernel and not the hardware. Notably, the "bad_page.part.61+0x9f/0xf0" line exactly matches the original trace in this bug report.
Generally, the system stays up when this happens, but the baseline load average on the system increases because the apache2 process triggering the bug gets stuck. Stopping apache, kill -9ing all the apache processes which did not exit when stopping apache, and starting apache again brings the load back down to normal. About every two weeks, the servers become completely unresponsive and must be reset. Hope this helps find the issue. This bug has prevented us from upgrading any further systems until it is resolved, and we may even have to downgrade these computers to 10.04 until a solution becomes available. The systems are completely up-to-date with 12.04.1 LTS.
