Bug Description
Summary: upgrading from 3.5.0-23 to 3.5.0-24 appears to reduce kernel stability suddenly from weeks/months to day or so.
Context: Hardware Asus n55sf laptop. Plugging Galaxy Nexus phone via USB daily or so. Observed for months that sometimes USB breaks (e.g. optical mouse literally off, un/plug does nothing, reboot fixes), but no oops.
Using suspend to ram regularly (~ daily). Typical uptime : weeks to 1-2 months.
Using Ubuntu upgrades regularly.
On 2013-02-01, upgraded to 3.5.0-23, no problem.
On 2013-02-21, upgraded to 3.5.0-24.
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
12.10 AMD64
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
LC_ALL=C apt-cache policy linux-image

3) What you expected to happen
No oops, no crash.
4) What happened instead
On 2013-02-22 (that is kernel update + 1 day), observed kernel panic: switch to text mode with panic report (but X mouse cursor still visible), led blinking. Text says : fatal exception interrupt.
Action : taken photograph of screen (can join if useful), power cycle machine.
On 2013-02-23 (that is kernel update + 2 days), observed kernel oops: switch to text mode with oops report, but X mouse cursor still visible and music still playing.
Action : taken photograph on screen (can join if useful, but you have dmesg attached so probably not useful). Observed that vt-switching key combinations could restore display. Not rebooted system (using it to write this very report) but several features disabled (laptop-integrated card reader, USB mouse). Lsusb still reports in-laptop bluetooth device as present but bluetooth-sendto cannot detect Galaxy Nexus nearby when doing proper steps.
Considered actions:
* continue normal use to confirm / narrow oops circumstances
* downgrade to 3.5.0-23 to confirm symptom disappear
Thank you for your attention.
