I sometimes like those things so that I can printk them during debug to see 
which one is doing it. If they were both a "1" there's no way to distinguish 
which one tripped it.

My feeling is that calling audit_panic does no good. In the case of sendfile, 
the data has already left the box and panic helps nothing. What we need to do 
is figure out how to close the loop manually just in case this ever happens. 
Maybe this should be added to the agenda for Monday's lspp telecon?

Thanks,
