Eh, unlikely.  The path is frequently traveled (shared with probing
path) and I can't really think of anything which could affect
scheduler like that.  There's nothing really exotic there.

Pretty please always attach full kernel log including the boot
messages when reporting a kernel bug.

So, eth0 is acting up.

and then the ATA controller is reporting data corruption on the host
bus, not the ATA bus - that is, data is getting corrupted while being
transported between the memory and the controller.

and then the system goes belly up in an unrelated code path.

Looks like malfunctioning hardware to me.  My first suggestion would
be trying a different PSU.

Thanks.
