Subject: task blocked for more than 120 seconds (2.6.26.1)

Hi,

Running 2.6.26.1 I am receiving errors similar to the following when
stress testing systems:

INFO: task kjournald:1004 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

This is on a 16 core Intel system with a single SATA disk and 4GB of
memory.  This particular instance of the error occurred after about an
hour.

I was previously using 2.6.24.7 from Fedora 8 and that did not exhibit
the problem.
