I've tried both v2.6.36-rc2 and commit
253c34e9b10c30d3064be654b5b78fbc1a8b1896 [1] - and I can mount an NFS
share with no problems:

sudo mount -t nfs4 sauron:/home/dedekind/ /mnt/sauron_home/

works fine. Any hints about how to reproduce this are welcome.

I'll try to look at the code and figure out why this could happen.

So, does the mount at some point succeed? Or it is blocked forever? And
sysrq-t output would be useful to look at as well.

Also, it is strange that 'sys_mount()' involves 'nfs4_kill_super()' - is
this normal or this is an error path?

[1]: the kernel tree does not compile on this commit, and I applied
patch on top to solve the compilation issue:
387ac089361fbe5ef287e6950c5c40f6b18e5c55 "block: fix missing export of
blk_types.h"
