[ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
-------------------------------------
fsx-linux/2409 is trying to release lock (&inode->i_mutex) at:
[<ffffffff804a09e9>] mutex_unlock+0x9/0xb
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
no locks held by fsx-linux/2409.

stack backtrace:
