Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
Pid: 1, comm: swapper Tainted: G      D    2.6.31-tip #16786

This is a huge commit which doesnt revert cleanly. I took a stab at it, 
see that revert below - it didnt help.

Obviously we'd want a fix instead of that - i'm willing to test any 
patch.

oh. I should have looked at the crash site before bisecting and 
reverting. That sure looks like an unconverted acpi_get_object_info() 
call, right?
