The traces are slightly different each reboot cycle, but it's always in
kswapd and usually in shrink_slab.  Once it happens, anything that
touches the filesystem hangs in D wait, so the machine is basically
toast.

The box is a Lenovo T420s sandybridge core i5 based laptop with 2GB of
memory.

There is a corresponding Red Hat bugzilla report here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=694818

And I've verified that the bug also shows in the 2.6.38.3 stable kernel.
If anyone wants me to try anything, please let me know.
