Any thoughts on this error?

I've run 3 memtest passes and put the box under severe CPU / disk / I/O 
load etc and there are no issues, but it appears when USB devices get 
used, the kernel panics.  Next test will probably be to remove all USB 
devices and just use PS/2 and see if the problem goes away but I was 
curious if anyone could comment on the that dump:

As to what might be causing this otherwise? Thanks!

Memtest86 v4.20(latest): 3 passes, no problems:
