Yup. And yes, the problem seems to co-incide with getting about 300 acpi interrupts per second. After about 9500 interrupts (each of which seems to create one of these things), the machine is basically dead. Ten thousand kacpid_notify threads is too much. Regardless of what brought on this bug, I think there's something wrong in anything that keeps on notifying things without keeping track of how many outstanding notifications it already has.
