Hi Bernd,

Sorry for the late response. I just chased down a similar bug reported
against Fedora and noticed that you reported the same bug here. In
fact, there is not a missing svc_get() there since svc_create_pooled
returns a reference on success. The problem is likely that we're
calling svc_destroy(nfsd_serv) in the above code, but the pointer is
not getting NULL'ed out.

The good news is that I believe this is fixed in 3.6 kernels and up...

I have a bit more analysis here if you're interested:

thanks for the heads up! I will take a look later on, probably during x-mas time. I'm right now just very busy with our project at work to finish a release...


Thanks again,
Bernd
