Possibly it could be this?

/* Task might have expired already, but not scheduled off yet */
if (p->array != rq->active) {
	set_tsk_need_resched(p); <-- [1]
	return;
}

static inline void set_ti_thread_flag(struct thread_info *ti, int flag)
{
	set_bit(flag,&ti->flags); <-- [2]
}

static __inline__ void set_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
{
	__asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX
		"btsl %1,%0"
		:"=m" (ADDR)
		:"Ir" (nr));
}

Code;  00000000 Before first symbol
00000000 <_EIP>:
Code;  00000000 Before first symbol
   0:   0f ab 50 08               bts    %edx,0x8(%eax)
Code;  00000004 Before first symbol
   4:   8d 65 f4                  lea    0xfffffff4(%ebp),%esp

So addr was NULL it seems, perhaps we're not supposed to be in here in the
first place ?
