This might have been caused by a fishy latency-reduction patch. I today
dropped that patch so could you please test next -mm and let me know?

Alternativety, revert ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.9-rc1/2.6.9-rc1-mm4/broken-out/journal_clean_checkpoint_list-latency-fix.patch

Thanks.
