Hi,

Aneesh, right, I missed the 2 other ones. I rebuilt a kernel with the 3 
patches, thanks for having thought of this, because that fixes the issue. Some 
details now :
actually this issue happens only when disabling RPT ("disable_radix") which is 
not the default in Artful.
Also I could have it on Witherspoon systems but not on Boston (having an other 
issue, which may hide this one... FYI the kernel loops infinitly displaying :
