I booted both my next branch, and Linus's master on MPC8641HPCN and didn't see
this -- though possibly your RFS is doing something different.  Maybe that's
the difference with P2010 as well.

Is there any way you can debug the cause of the crash?  Or send me a minimal
RFS that demonstrates the problem (ideally with debug symbols on the userspace
binaries)?
