    Can you remind us:
    - your ARM is UP, right? Do you have PREEMPT on?
    - This is probably a stupid question, but you did make sure that the
    database was ok (with some rebuild command) and that you didn't have
    preexisting corruption?

    Anyway, the page_mkclean_one() fixes (along with _most_ things we've
    looked at) shouldn't matter on UP, at least certainly not without PREEMPT.
