Well, the trace doesn't indicate how the problem is related to the
suspend/resume code paths.

Is this a regression for you?

Thanks,

Hi Rafael,

This problem manifests itself when resuming from RAM, but only very infrequently. This is the third occurrence since I started using this machine three months ago. I suspend it to RAM at least twice a day. The previous two occurrences were on 3.0. So not a clear regression in that sense. (Note this is from memory, I didn't record those other two oopses)

However, since it happens immediately upon resume, I suspected it was related. Would you have any tips for stress testing resumes? If I can increase the reproducibility then I could try to bisect it.

Or do you think it better, judging from the back trace, to forward this to some other subsystem maintainer? Please do then, I obviously don't know how to read backtraces.

Thanks,

Wouter
