Yup.

And yes, the problem seems to co-incide with getting about 300 acpi 
interrupts per second. After about 9500 interrupts (each of which seems to 
create one of these things), the machine is basically dead.

Ten thousand kacpid_notify threads is too much. Regardless of what brought 
on this bug, I think there's something wrong in anything that keeps on 
notifying things without keeping track of how many outstanding 
notifications it already has.
