Most of my failures have happened on regular MMC cards with ext4
filesystems on them.

Note that the panic happens during device probe / partition table
scanning, not after mounting the filesystem.

Giving your patch a go now across the board. I'm very concerned about
the reports of bisectability, build failures and heaps of warnings
though. Did the 0-day builder pick up any of those? :-/
