We've had a number of panics reported by people using cifs mounts on F15. See the following reported bugs: 727927 731278 732934 I'd like to see both of the following patches added to 2.6.40.3 and above until they make it into the stable series. The second may also be appropriate for F16, but it may be simpler to just wait for the stable series to catch up there. The patches are pretty straightforward fixes, let me know if anything with them isn't clear.
