There is no activity from me because I have unsubscribed from the bug...
it is just by chance that I am reading this now.

This bug has been investigated and fixed in recent linux ages ago and
Jussi, eccerr0r and I have provided all the relevant information and
pointers in this thread. It has also been clarified in LKML that due to
the type of bug it is quite meaningless to provide traces and that this
bug may cause data loss due to corruption of the kernel data structures.
Yet, dangerous as it is, and regardless of the many users confirmig the
issue, the bug remains unconfirmed because there is no apport-collect
that is considered much more important than all the other info. And
since the bug is not confirmed, the ubuntu kernel developers are just
ignoring the report and all the useful pointers to upstream discussion.
And not surprisingly ubuntu remains unfixed months after the upstream
fix. Similarly not surprisingly duplicate bug reports spring out without
being recognized as such.

Unfortunately, I must say that I really find it a waste of time to
report bugs and spend time in checking the LKML and provide pointers to
the root relevant discussion there and pointers to upstream patches that
fix the issue in this condition. And this is why I gave in. Also it is a
bit sad that eccerr0r is invited not stay out of the discussion in the
duplicate 1256811 just because his main OS is gentoo.

I am also really sorry to say that the management of this bug report
seems to me as all rules and bureaucracy and zero substance, but I hope
that this can be accepted as constructive criticism, since I'm also
taking the time to try to explain why I'm getting this impression.
