Here's a blind backport.  Only compile-tested.  I would be very
surprised if it does not break anything, especially because I lazily
pulled in patches instead of actually carefully backporting the code
to the older kernel, so it is more invasive than necessary.

But maybe it can serve as a starting point.

I compiled the 2.6.32 kernel from squeeze with these patches on a sid box and it seems to fix the bug. I haven't fully testing any other NFS functionality now.

How do you determine which other patches are required to backport a specific patch (in general)? Is there some magic git command for that?

Regards,

Rik
