I'm using now 2.6.15-rc5 kernel with latest Alsa 1.0.10 and I received a lot

I think that means you have a mismatch: that you're using core/memalloc.c
from alsa-driver-1.0.10/alsa-kernel rather than from 2.6.15-rc5/sound.
Applying the update below should eliminate your "Bad page state"s:
I've no idea whether there are other mismatches, quite possibly not.
