Hi Fengguang,

Are you testing with a kernel that contains commit
0d88f6e804c824454b5ed0d3034ed3dcf7467a87 (nfs: don't call
__mark_inode_dirty while holding i_lock)?

The locking scheme for __mark_inode_dirty was changed in commit
250df6ed274d767da844a5d9f05720b804240197 (in the 2.6.39 merge window),
but as far as I can tell all the NFS users of that function should now
have now been fixed except for the case of one pNFS user for which I do
have a patch in my 'bugfixes' branch on linux-nfs.org.

Cheers
  Trond
