XFS with project quota support in Kernel 2.6.28(.9)

Hi

I have problems in writes that hang for more than 7 seconds because of the
the kthreadd daemon keeping a mutex locked for too long.
Is there someone who might be able to help me with that?
I saw that a lot of changes were done on the XFS quota support in later
kernels, but the patch list is too long between my kernel and the changed
quota system.

process 411 ([khubd], kthreadd)
  pid = 411, tgid = 411, parent = 2, real parent = 2
  baduaddr = 0x00000000, badvaddr = 0x00000000, state = 2, flags =
0x80208040
  policy = 0, prio = 115, static prio = 115, normal prio = 115, rt prio = 0
  pc = vmlinux_flash.elf/context_switch+0x3ac (kernel/sched.c:2668)
                schedule (kernel/sched.c:4496)
  kernel stack

Did you manage to check if you can reproduce the issue with a recent
kernel?
