__d_lookup in 2.6.6

From: Frank Smith

Hello,

Are there any known issues with fs/dcache in kernel 2.6.6 that
would cause oopses like the following in __d_lookup to happen
occasionally? I've done lots of googling on this, and it appears
that there is a lot of flux in this code, so I'm wondering how
solid fs/dcache is in 2.6.6.

This is on a 74xx PPC board, using an NFS root filesystem.

-Frank.
