I've just been reading through the Documentation/development-process
and discovered "sparse".
Five minutes ago I ran it on mmu.c and got the following interesting
output:

Is it just a co-incidence that the first two lines refer to the same
symbol that you have just mentioned?
I'm going to try renaming the local symbol and see if things still crash.
The trouble is that the box I've been testing on is supposed to be our
backup file server and is currently doing a rsync of 280GB of files
from a 7 year old windows box. At least I'll be able to leave it
running undisturbed over the weekend.
