Hi,

please can you send this patch to Linus' tree?
NFS is currently broken, so it will save time for people trying
to bisect the problem.

It breaks even elementary operation on nfs mounts
# cat a > b
cat: write error

Patch above from nfs-git fixed the problem for me
http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=trondmy/nfs-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=0702099bd86c33c2dcdbd3963433a61f3f503901

Thanks,
Milan
