      I don't see here a reason why the machine crashed (some NULL pointer
    deref or what...). It would be useful to know it. Also could you run
    gdb on vmlinux a find out where exactly in the function the oops
    occured?
      Anyway I was briefly reading the code in log_do_checkpoint() and two
    things are not clear to me - are we guaranteed that
    transaction->t_checkpoint_list is non-empty (the code relies on that)?
    Another thing is - __flush_buffer() can sleep. Cannot someone change
    the t_checkpoint_list while we are sleeping? We are protected only by
    the j_checkpoint_sem and that only protects us against other
    log_do_checkpoint() calls.
