I hit a similar problem while calling kzalloc(). it happened on 
linux-2.6.17-rc1 + ppc64.

kernel BUG in __cache_alloc_node at mm/slab.c:2934!
which is 
        BUG_ON(slabp->inuse == cachep->num);

3:mon> expr
cpu 0x3: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c0000000dac87870]
    pc: c0000000000b75b0: .__cache_alloc_node+0x94/0x180
    lr: c0000000000b756c: .__cache_alloc_node+0x50/0x180
    sp: c0000000dac87af0

  current = 0xc0000000f1d3a040
  paca    = 0xc000000000439480
    pid   = 9508, comm = ipoib_comp/3
