Description:
Archlinux crashes at random times with taint kernel messages.

An history of the step taken and log exerpts can be found here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1510803#p1510803

In summary I first tought of a HDD problem (HDD, partition, etc.) but it turned out that changing the kernel version to LST solved the issue.

It should be noted that the bug appeared after an upgrade of the system to 3.18.6-1, it still exist in 3.19. Before the upgrade everything was working fine.

I tried the following before sending a mail:
- change of hard drive-> same problem;
- change of partition system (from DOS to GPT) -> same problem;
- update of kernel (to 3.19.1) -> same problem;
- change of partition system (from ext4 to xfs) -> a similar log but with xfs process instead of etx4 journaling process;
- revert to LTS kernel -> no crash for more than one week problem solved.

Additional info:
* linux 3.18.6-1
* see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1510803#p1510803

Hello, I was just wondering if there were any progress on this ? I noticed that the kernel LTS has swithed to 3.14, slowly moving toward 3.18 were I encourtered this problem. Do you think it will be solved before the LTS reaches 3.18 ?
