Result on a first batch of bisects. I decided to go with the kernel
releases rather than git-bisect (still too scary for me).

All kernel releases 2.6.25 through -30 kernel gave the same error.
2.6.25 crashed on it, whereas 2.6.26+ recovered after each "dd" run.

The BSP 2.6.24.3-rt3 kernel did not give the error.

So on my todo is diff between 2.6.25 and .2.6.24.3-rt3 from the BSP.
