From: "Duane Griffin" <duaneg@xxxxxxxxx> If the orphan node list includes valid, untruncatable nodes with nlink > 0 the ext3_orphan_cleanup loop which attempts to delete them will not do so, causing it to loop forever. Fix by checking for such nodes in the ext3_orphan_get function. This patch fixes the second case (image hdb.20000009.softlockup.gz) reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10882.
