kernel BUG in __cache_alloc_node at linux-2.6.git/mm/slab.c:3177!

[Will Schmidt]

Here is the content of /sys/devices/system/node/*  and /proc/meminfo.  
This is from the same partition, booted with a 2.6.16-ish distro
kernel. 

notice that the node1/meminfo MemUsed value seems just a little bit
elevated.   MemFree being larger than MemTotal seems a bit wrong too.
