How reproducible is this? Can you make it happen on every attempt?
Is this kernel being built with CONFIG_CIFS_DFS_UPCALL=y ?

We see this message:

> [28816.788094]  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -113

...and then we see it oops in:

> [28816.788125] IP: [<f9bfde00>] :cifs:cifs_read_super+0xa0/0x1e0

After you see that error message, the code in that function doesn't do
much. Mainly, it just checks some pointers and frees a few things. If
it's crashing then it's probably happening when the code dereferences
the struct members in out_mount_failed, but I don't see any obvious
bugs jumping out at me.

Could you email me the cifs.ko module from this kernel? I'd like to
disassemble it and have a look at where it crashed. I may not be
able to tell much, but it's worth a look...

Thanks,
