Oops in ext3_block_to_path.isra.40+0x26/0x11b

From: George Spelvin

During last night's backups, I got the following oops; I figured I should
report it.

I don't see any changes in all of fs/ext3 between -rc4 and -rc7, so I
presume the report is still valid.

The 8 local patches are in drivers/media/rc/ati_remote.c, and the module
wasn't even loaded.

Although the NFS modules are loaded, nothing is exported.
Likewise, the battery module is purely accidental.
There is one NFS mount, but it's quiescent.

CPU is a Core i3 530, on a Gigabyte motherbord, 4 GB RAM. No ECC,
unfortunately, so I can't rule out hardware bit rot. Distribution is
a fairly stock Debian/unstable.
