I ran into the problem again.  It is definetely being caused by firefox.  I 
generally use uzbl, a webkit base browser, but after 5min of using firefox 
today, my syslog was filled with over 10 million lines!  Here's a sample:

According to your log, preemption count of the log-writer thread goes
wrong; it must be equal or greater than 0, but your log shows it
became -1 (0xffffffff) maybe due to some kind of bug in nilfs.

I'm looking at this problem, but I don't have no clue why this
happened.

Is it reproducible after reboot?

Thanks,
