Should be fixed by b0052fcaefb829a29fdc6567274daf0b75329fc3 ("Define 
termios_1 functions for powerpc, s390, avr32 and frv").

A number of attempts to reproduce this on these machines has yet to
re-trigger it.  I guess the Status is therefore "under test --
unreproducible at present"

I'm still waiting to hear from Oliver whether or not this is actually a
regression.

Hi Michal,

The NFSV4 [BUG] 2.6.23-rc5 kernel BUG at fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c:945, is again
seen in 2.6.23-rc6. Can this bug be added as known regression for
2.6.23-rc6. References http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/7/27.

I have patches which fix this, which we're testing.  (See bugzilla.)
It's a long-standing bug, not a regression.

OK, I've done test. On 2.6.22 I was unable to trigger the warning.
On 2.6.23-rc6 I get the following warning in about 3/4 of all unmounts:

This is on a partition of a usb mass storage device with 2K sector size.
IMHO it is a regression. I am recompiling with CONFIG_JFS_DEBUG.

Looks like a regression then.  I'll take a look at the debug output and get back to you.
