Small hint - please put the subsytemthe bug occurred in in the
subject line. I missed this in the firehose of lkml traffic because
there wasnothing to indicate to me it was in XFS. Soemthing like:

"Kernel crash in xfs_iflush_cluster"

Won't get missed quite so easily....

This may be a fixed problem - what kernel are you running?

Cheers,

Dave.
