Hi John, The below oops happens in v3.5..v3.6-rc2 and it's bisected down to commit 2a8c0883c ("time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling timekeeping_adjust"). However linux-next is working fine. Do you have any fixes not yet sent to Linus? [ 2221.089504] VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of tmpfs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day...
