hi,

with the new stable kernel 2.6.35.7 i'm observing on 2 machines
used for development and eda processing (heavy cpu/io/net usage)
following task locking:

[13320.258868] INFO: task rpcbind:14163 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

such lock blocks nfs/automounter/machine and only sysrq-reboot helps.
at this momemnt i've downgraded kernel to 2.6.35.5 and it works again.
any hints what to check during limited night-maintance-window?

ps).
please CC me on lkml-reply.

BR,
Pawel.
