This line is bogus:

This is probably the real source of the crash, from the stack trace. It is 
used in all sort of pseudo-files (like those in /proc), so I would say this 
bug seems more likely to be a mainline one; and it is unclear from the trace 
where the crash may have really happened. Upgrade to 2.6.19 + latest stable 
patch instead of rc5, and if it happens again (or if you can reproduce it) we 
can debug it.
