For the two panics I've seen so far:
fffffc00004e2700 T pciide_dma_start
pc: fffffc00004e27a0
fffffc00004e2700 T pciide_dma_start
ra: fffffc00004e2798
fffffc000030061c T idle
pc: fffffc0000300640
fffffc0000365e20 T mi_switch
ra: fffffc000036600c
How/why would the pc and the ra be in the same function in the first
case?!?!?
The second one is a bit of a worry too (panic while idle), especially in
light of Andrei's message saying that 660 is a double bit ECC error...
