I did not encounter this problem in 3.8.0-18-generic or earlier but I am encountering it in 3.8.0-19-generic. I have also tried 3.9.0-030900rc7-generic (in an attempt to narrow down an unrelated problem) and do not encounter this "BUG" message there either.
Below are all of the "BUG" messages I received while running 3.8.0-19-generic. In case it's relevant, I do not have any swap space configured: $ free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 7868 3091 4777 0 180 1184 -/+ buffers/cache: 1725 6143 Swap: 0 0 0 [ 46.416478] swap_free: Bad swap file entry 200000000000000 [ 46.416492] BUG: Bad page map in process udevd pte:00000002 pmd:20ffeb067 [ 46.416502] addr:00007f31b75fc000 vm_flags:00000070 anon_vma: (null) mapping:ffff880211d2f788 index:d1 [ 46.416515] vma->vm_ops->fault: filemap_fault+0x0/0x470 [ 46.416527] vma->vm_file->f_op->mmap: ext4_file_mmap+0x0/0x50 [ 46.416535] Pid: 667, comm: udevd Tainted: GF 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu [ 46.416540] Call Trace: [ 46.416558] [<ffffffff8115477d>] print_bad_pte+0x1dd/0x250 [ 46.416566] [<ffffffff81156df9>] unmap_page_range+0x529/0x750 [ 46.416574] [<ffffffff811570aa>] unmap_single_vma+0x8a/0x100 [ 46.416582] [<ffffffff81157909>] unmap_vmas+0x49/0x90 [ 46.416590] [<ffffffff8115fcf8>] exit_mmap+0x98/0x170 [ 46.416600] [<ffffffff810559e4>] mmput+0x64/0x100 [ 46.416608] [<ffffffff8105e302>] do_exit+0x242/0x9d0 [ 46.416616] [<ffffffff8119566e>] ?
