The problems seems to have something to do with strange dentries appearing in dentry cache,
also you have verified that this is not because of fs error.
What kernel are you running?
I think may be race with iget4 might cause this, but I am not sure.
We have a patch for this iget4 race, and if you are willing to test it, I can
send it to you.
