SMBFS oops.

I got an oops in 2.1.72 while using smbfs which I suspect was related to a
nasty interaction between amd and smbfs. I might be wrong. Here's the
context:

Dec 16 10:50:21 cananian kernel: smb_receive: Increase packet size from 4096 to 8192
Dec 16 10:51:23 cananian amd[256]: file server linux.kernel.org type nfs ok
Dec 16 10:53:34 cananian amd[256]: ftp.kernel.org:/ unmounted fstype host from /.automount/ftp.kernel.org/root
Dec 16 10:55:15 cananian kernel: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030
Dec 16 10:55:15 cananian kernel: current->tss.cr3 = 017fe000, ^Xr3 = 017fe000
Dec 16 10:55:15 cananian kernel: *pde = 00000000
Dec 16 10:55:15 cananian kernel: Oops: 0000

The Oops'ed process was trying to read from the smbfs filesystem.
I don't want to spam the list -- if you're knowledgable of smbfs
internals, email me for the full Oops report, config, etc.
