A fix for this regression should be merged by 2.6.36-rc3. Until then,
you can get the patch from:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ecryptfs/ecryptfs-2.6.git;a=commit;h=93c3fe40c279f002906ad14584c30671097d4394

For those interested, the bug report linked above has a description
of the problem. In general, you shouldn't use eCryptfs in 2.6.36-rc{1,2}
if you have file name encryption enabled.
