I looked at this whole day today, but found nothing.

The code analysis for usbmon shows nothing. Anyone wants to have
a look?

Reproduction does not work either. I tried various loads, loops
of opening/closing while pushing events from USB, nothing.

BTW, I tried to create memory pressure with mem=300MB, result:

top: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0xc0d0
Pid: 2337, comm: top Not tainted 2.6.25-ub #33

Call Trace:

The error is not just advisory, the application (top) dies because
/proc/stat cannot be read. I'm surprised that you people managed
to get the warning at 2443, because things start unravel way earlier
for me.
