Subject: 2.6.24-rc4: mount.ntfs-3g hangs when smack is enabled

 Hi Casey,

 I'm not sure whether this is a smack problem, but Mandriva users are
reporting that mount.ntfs-3g (ntfs driver, uses FUSE) hangs when
they try to mount their NTFS partition.

 I could reproduce the problem with a vanilla 2.6.24-rc4 kernel, and it
only happens when Smack is enabled.

 Besides that, I've been told that a similar problem happens with unionfs,
but I haven't tried to reproduce it yet.

 What follows is the output of SysRq+D:
