I think the following BUG indicates I'm hitting this problem? All I have to do to cause it is unlink a file. My ceph client kernel is 8dbdea8444 (master branch) from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git + e41cdbb6c5 (master branch) + a3f5274e53 (unstable branch) from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client.git Are there any patches available for this I can test?
