Hello,

if anyone else is using xfs and a preemptible kernel and would to get rid 
of that "exited with preempt_count x" msgs here is a small 'quick and 
dirty' (1 line) patch.

see http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=8266691&list=35

I've used this because I got an error when I've tried to disable the 
'preemtible Kernel' option.

PS: The crypto kernel is missing as choice in the installation instructions 
on gentoo.org.
