I would second Andi's opinion on this - we do not have changes in the kernel
which should affect this. Mind you, nothing in the isdn code appears to have
changed much in 2.4.1 either. 2.4.2-pre3 takes a rather large swipe at isdn.

However, I do notice empty_bad_page in the trace - this is not a function
call, but a special page. I checked in one fix in a swapout path on Friday
which was related to pte corruption with XFS, you need the latest
version of mm/vmscan.c. Are you running with this file?
