I'm still seeing the same problems with 2.6.28, and I suspect that this qualifies as a kind of regression (though ancient), since the devices I'm running this on (Buffalo LinkStations) originally ship with a (vendor-modified) 2.6.16 kernel, where XFS seems to be working. Is this still on anyone's radar? I'm willing to test proposed fixes and supply data[1], but lack any deep knowledge of either ARM or XFS internals. (Please Cc: me, I'm not on the list.)
