Could you apply these patches:
2092e6be WARN_ON_SMP(): Allow use in if() statements on UP
29096202 futex: Fix WARN_ON() test for UP
On top of this commit, and see if the problem goes away. What could have
happened, is that you have two bugs, with one of them fixed. If the git
bisect stumbled on this bug, it will show this one, even though later
on, this code was fixed. If you apply the above two patches and it works
again, then this isn't the bug you are looking for.
