gdb of X using Kernel 2.6.38-02063802

>From kernel .35 onwards the system freezes at random.
This is mostly while scrolling scrolling pages while they load in Firefox(most
common) or while scrolling in Nautilus/Gedit windows while they load.

Once it freezes I'm not able to do anything, only the mouse pointer alone moves
but nothing else responds. It seems to happen when there is increased disk
read/write.(but I'm not very sure of this) I'm using btrfs for my /home
partition.

This regression starts in Kernel 2.6.35-1-generic #1-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jun 5
06:18:25 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

While, I dont have any problems with Kernel 2.6.34-5-generic #14-Ubuntu SMP Fri
Jun 4 06:18:40 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux or MainlineKernel
2.6.34-02063407-generic #201009140905 SMP Tue Sep 14 10:10:14 UTC 2010 i686
GNU/Linux, both work fine.

Problem is also present in Mainline Kernel 2.6.36-020636 , Ubuntu Kernel
2.6.37-12.26 , Mainline Kernel 2.6.37-020637rc8 , Ubuntu Kernel 2.6.38-1 and
Mainline Kernel 2.6.38-02063802

I'm not able to test with kernel .39 because I'm having network issues with
that.
