Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the report. Start by reproducing the crash with BlockBlock enabled and compare the Console and system.log output with BlockBlock disabled; done means identifying a BlockBlock-related cause for the kernel memory growth and verifying that the system no longer reaches zone-map exhaustion.
