kernel: kernel BUG at vmscan.c:389!

[IP v6]

Hello all, I've googled about the error in the subject but can't find anything about it,
I seem to be the only one having this?

Since I couldn't find anything in Google I am mailing it to this list.

I'm having this for the second time and needed to reboot the box and I don't know how to reproduce this.

The kernel version is 2.4.24-pre2 with some netfilter pom patches and lufs patch
and the CPU is a Cyrix 6x86L 150MHz
I believe this was the reason why I decided to upgrade to 2.4.24-pre2 from 2.4.23 but I'm not sure anymore, I forgot...
Anyway I'm compiling 2.4.23 again now, as this may not happen when I'm out partying for newyear ;)

Here is a *small* portion of the messages in /var/log/messages
(there is more but the mail would be too long to include them all :)).
I hope someone can do anything with this and help me. Thanks.
