I reproduced this bug (kernel panic, total freeze) this morning by doing
*two* simultaneous rm -rf commands on folders created by copying /bin
/lib /boot /etc /lib64 /root /srv /usr /opt /sbin /var into two backup
folders on another ext4 partition.

I had netconsole running on another computer, but nothing at all was
logged there about the panic, unlike in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/330824/comments/57.

At least something was damaged in the crash because Skype needed my
password after rebooting, but I'm not sure what else might have been
affected. The folders I was deleting at the time of the crash were
largely intact.
