Hmm, good point. I wish I had the oops; it would probably help tremendously debugging this no matter what. But from looking at the code as you suggested, it may be that with all the NFS traffic this guy receives we have an issue with reiserfs, and that was bad enough to cause an oops. I don't think it's the tl-size problem, as that before had a pretty clear signature. I'll do some further investigation, thanks for the pointers.
