In Stan's case, it's a order-1 GFP_ATOMIC allocation but there are

2.6.35 or 2.6.36-rc1 that Stan/Mikael should test?
This is the TCP slab? Best fix would be in the page allocator. However,
in this particular case the slub allocator would be able to fall back to
an order 0 allocation and still satisfy the request.

Looking at the stack trace of the oops, I think Stan has CONFIG_SLAB which doesn't have order-0 fallback.
