Public bug reported:
This is on linux-image-generic-lts-raring (which I recently upgraded to
3.8.0-29; the problem didn't occur before upgrading AFAIR)
I see this junk in my dmesg when creating / formatting a zram swap, and
then periodically. Then at some point after heavy swapping incidents,
the machine locks up. "Correlation does not imply causation, but it does
waggle its eyebrows suggestively" and all that.
