I've seen similar things since 2.1.49, 50, 51-pre1, and about to check
51. For me, it always happened when autofs tried to expire an ext2fs
volume. EIP debugging output showed that the kernel is stuck inside
__dlookup(), in the while(tmp != head) loop. I don't know why,
it's probably impossible. Bill? :)
