I just got this too after 8 days and 10 hours of uptime with a 2.0.31
kernel built from the full source tree.

Oct 26 20:22:55 altair kernel: iput: inode 6231 on device 08:02 still has mappings.
Oct 26 20:31:19 altair kernel: iput: inode 106625 on device 08:02 still has mappings.

Inode 6231 is /bin/bash, inode 106625 is /lib/libdl-2.0.5.so.

Is this message dangerous? I was able to close down all my windows
and reboot.
