Is the following usually a software or hardware problem or could be
either? The crashes started appearing weeks after adding a 2nd
processor to an ES40 and happen every couple of weeks.
 
trap: invalid memory write access from kernel mode

    faulting virtual address: 0x00000000000000c8
    pc of faulting instruction: 0xffffffffacfe3108
    ra contents at time of fault: 0xffffffffacfe0cd4
    sp contents at time of fault: 0xffffffffad027410

panic (cpu 0): kernel memory fault
