2.6.24.x was good 2.6.25.y was not. The Debian packages don't include
the stable release numbers in their version so I'm unsure of x and y,
Judging from the changelog entries I think 2.6.24.3 and 2.6.25.10.
Since I have been building my own kernels I have seen repros with:
a551b98d5f6fce5897d497abd8bfb262efb33d2a Merge branch 'for-linus' of
git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block (was tip of git at the time I tested
it a while ago)
c02a79dedc7f3c3d4fdbb5eb2000cacea5df4cde v2.6.26.5
daedfbe2a67628a40076a6c75fb945c60f608a2e NFS: Ensure we zap only the
access and acl caches when setting new acls (backport of
f41f741838480aeaa3a189cff6e210503cf9c42d to 2.6.26.y stream, identified
by bisect, possibly/probably incorrectly)

above)
2e96d2867245668dbdb973729288cf69b9fafa66 NFS: Fix a warning in
nfs4_async_handle_error (commit before
f41f741838480aeaa3a189cff6e210503cf9c42d)
I did not see the problem with bce7f793daec3e65ec5c5705d2457b81fe7b5725
(v2.6.26) in 4 days 19 hours. Due to the apparent mis-bisection leading
to daedfbe2a67628a40076a6c75fb945c60f608a2e this result is in doubt, I'm
currently retesting this kernel.
The bisect was restricted to paths under fs/nfs* and net/sunrpc. I've
gone over the range v2.6.26..daedfbe2a67628a40076a6c75fb945c60f608a2e
and nothing jumps out at me. If my retest of 2.6.26 shows it to be OK
again I'll bisect over the non-NFS changesets in that range.
The symptoms are a hang of any access to an NFS mounted path, although
the rest of the system continues to work.
Other potentially interesting info cribbed from earlier postings:
While the hang is occurring rpc_debug on the server gives nothing, on
the client gives:
[144741.637997] -pid- proc flgs status -client- -prog- --rqstp- -timeout -rpcwait -action- ---ops--

The mount points are

all of them seem to be effected simultaneously (but I'll check to make double sure next time it occurs).
I've seen hung task backtraces from effected processes, e.g.
