Hi Willy et al,

Please consider

  beb0f0a9fba1 kernel panic when mount NFSv4, 2010-12-20

for application to kernel.org's 2.6.32.y and 2.6.34.y trees.  The
patch was applied upstream during the 2.6.38 merge window, so newer
kernels don't need it.

(Context: <http://bugs.debian.org/695872>.)  Tom Downes (cc-ed)
experienced the bug on a Debian kernel close to 2.6.32.58 and
confirmed that the patch doesn't seem to hurt.

The patch is part of Fedora 13's 2.6.34-based and Fedora 14's
2.6.35-based kernels[1].  It was also included in the RHEL kernel at
some point between 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6 and 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6[2].

Thoughts of all kinds welcome, as always.

Regards,
Jonathan

Thank you for all the details, as always :-)

I'm queuing this patch for 2.6.32.61.

Best regards,
Willy
