I don't really know and I have no way to know which one should be incriminated. I have also posted a mail on the lkml about that but nobody has replied to it. Since I have no clue about that and it's xfree which takes 100% of the CPU I decided to file a BR against xfree. If you think this is a kernel bug you may reassign it.
