Filing a bug in freedesktop.org with all the details is the fastest way
of getting help. Without the bug (and with such little information as
the previous e-mail) it's hard to estimate the extent and nature of the
bug.

I've anyway gone and prepared a patch to drop the RCU sync completely
from shrinker phase, as discussed originally with Chris.
