I tried to mount my nfs root with NOLOCK, shouldnt this also make those messages disappear ?

 host btest.fds{
  hardware ethernet 00:17:31:37:A9:CF;
  fixed-address 192.168.4.39;
  filename "/tftpboot/pxelinux.0";
  option root-path "/netclients/192.168.4.39_sles9,nolock,rsize=4096,wsize=4096";
 }

It doesnt look like anything changed with NOLOCK, still lots of do_vfs_lock
while booting up ...

Best regards,
Marco
