Subject: [3.1-rc4] vfs_rmdir() -> mutex_unlock() Oops
Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2011 15:24:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110908222420.GE8043@hostway.ca> (raw)

This box primarily does most of its VFS stuff over lots of NFS mounts,
but has some local EXT3 filesystems. This has happened a couple of times:
