Created attachment 328040 [details] cifs: Do not lookup hashed negative dentry in cifs_atomic_open Please view: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=867344 Very, very annoying my system! I'm use this patch: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=635685&action=diff Problem solved.
Not sure if you have set the importance right but then they at least are aware if they need to be. It appears there's talk about this at http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg59341.html and at http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg59340.html Gentoo attempts to deviate away from the upstream kernel the least possible, so we'll have to see how this patch gets reviewed upstream.
This patch is officially in kernel 3.7.X and >= 3.6.8 At this time, 3.6.11 is a candidate for stabilization
