OK, I reproduced the sync stuck in D state, unfortunately it is stuck
in what appears to be a generic place, __wait_on_buffer. Looks like
I might need IKD to investigate further. I guess I'm a little dense,
looking at the IKD docs I couldnt find a "stuck-process-oopser" feature.
Could you explain how to invoke this and what data to expect?
