As these messages indicate something going wild in kernelland (due to the
stack trace), I'm CC'ing the linux-kernel mailing list. It is probably
triggered by something probably not related to usbmount.

Just for extra information, what kind of fs do you have on your memory
stick? Can you provide extra details on the situation?
