Subject: NFSv4 WARNING: at linux/fs/inode.c:280 drop_nlink+0x23/0x44()

Hi folks,

I just noticed the following WARNING in my logs.  Looking through the
older logs, I see quite a few of these going (at least) all the way back
to 3.3.x days.  The process which triggers the warning always seems to
be the same (icecat).

This is on a Linux 3.5.2 NFSv4 client machine using sec=krb5.  Other
than the log noise, there seems to be no adverse effects.
