2.6.34 echo j > /proc/sysrq-trigger causes inifnite unfreeze/Thaw event

causes the FS Thaw stuff in fs/buffer.c to enter an infinite loop
filling the /var/log/messages with junk and causing the hard drive to
crank away endlessly.

Also, stack frame corruption in the kernel. tracking it down with
MDB. shows up with temporary int1 breakpoints set at times. Really
FUCKED UP.
