This was with 2.6.16.9

There's an nfs export from an xfs on an lvm on a raid5 on some
libata/sata disks.
(cc'ing xfs since I recall rumoured(?) badness in old nfs/xfs/md/lvm
setups and xfs_sendfile is mentioned)

dmesg had:

Bad page state in process 'nfsd'
page:b1602060 flags:0x80000008 mapping:00000000 mapcount:0 count:16777216
Trying to fix it up, but a reboot is needed
