Nasty weird. I did a quick test here, and I'm not seeing that. Does the 2.6.33 experimental kernel have any patches applied? The sysfs_add_one path looks like someone we hit a duplicate name, which is a bug of an entirely different kind. From there it appears that we later destroy the device not realizing it isn't in sysfs. Which causes everything to explode. The sysctl issues appears to be that somewhere we have the ordering of creates and/or deletes wrong. It is just possible the changes for batch deletion might be exposing a bug under load. The sysctl error appears to be in the class of things that should never happen but that we should handle correctly anyway.
