Subject: CacheFiles: Readpage failed on backing file

Hi there,

excited that the cachefiles made it into mainline, I've mounted an NFS 
share with "-o fsc". After a clean reboot, I only need to read some files 
off the NFS mount to get the following trace:

This is reproducible with a current (-git) vanilla kernel, 
cachefilesd-0.9-2 (Debian/unstable) in a 64 bit Xen DomU.

I've seen a simlar thing reported on the linux-cachefs list in May:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2009-May/msg00018.html

...where the backtrace looks similar, but mine has some Xen stuff in 
between. Full dmesg & .config and /proc bits are here:
    http://nerdbynature.de/bits/2.6.30/

Thanks,
Christian.
