Will do, though the new specified commit
(8bacb5ad41da1fde1c05165515c50e2911f16899) is actually before the
previous commit (dbb563ec7b143323dd31520ab08c08394bc13381), which
usually happens if "bad" is reported to the bisection, whereas all the
results to date have been "good".

Title:
  Kernel oops - BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
  0000000000000030; IP: [<ffffffff811c07c7>] touch_atime+0x17/0x140

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since 3.11.0-13-generic, I've been encountering the following kernel
  oops. I can trigger it quite reliably by watching full-screen videos
  on YouTube using google-chrome (Version 31.0.1650.48) for roughly 10
  minutes. Once the oops happens, the system remains up, but certain
  programs (like top) start hanging and a reboot is needed to restore
  full functionality.

  I've tried using 3.12.0-999-generic (3.12.0-999.201311080433), but get
  the same problem there. I don't get the oops when booting into
  3.11.0-12-generic, so I suspect the problem was introduced in
  3.11.0-13-generic (especially since I see there were some changes made
  related to the shmat system call).

  Attached is the oops from dmesg. The EIP location and stack-trace are
  identical for all the oops I've seen so far.
