Amazing - you dont see those very often.
The crash happens in the journaling code of the ext3 filesystem. Supposedly, this is with the original kernel shipped with your Red Hat 7.2? I cannot even remember what this was - and Red Hat only has updates available for their enterprise releases now.
It's interesting that hobbitd_rrd can trigger it, but it's really a kernel bug. And I'm pretty sure any Linux kernel developer would start out with "get an updated kernel installed" before bothering to look at it.
