BUG 2080.
I reopened, got told that that is completely different issue, then
encountered exactly the same issue on supposedly fixed kernel,
so reopened again.

That's why I wanted to provide a way to reproduce the problem, I would
imagine that overnight stresstest would already be a part of your internal
QA.
This got through our own QA probably because we were running only
'stress' app, only when we added parallel bonnie+ ( which we did, because
production machines that were crashing all had significant IO on them as
common thing ).

Thats very nice and correct, can you please tell me if the issue I can
see here has been reproduced and is too hard to fix, or maybe it's not
reproducible, and then, how can I help in reproducing them.
As I said, from my point of view, the issue is trivially reproducible,
results in crashes manifesting themselves in few different ways, so I
assume that means multiple different bugs, or something more fundamental.
