em i was able reproduce the bug before patching ... after patching when i played
around with smb i got a panic VERY fast ... but when doing a bt in gdb it's
different on the latest memory dump as the ones before. Should I upload the
memory dump (will probably take a day or so) or is it safe to say that it's the
cause of the patch?
