Just came across another issue, but a bit more problematic, as my
kernel (Linus' tip as well) panics, after mounting the rootfs:

Adding a little hack, and could produce a better strack trace.
See the diff and the stack trace below:

FWIW, here's my piece of NFS config:

CONFIG_NFS_FS=y
CONFIG_NFS_V2=y
CONFIG_NFS_V3=y
# CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL is not set
# CONFIG_NFS_V4 is not set
# CONFIG_NFS_SWAP is not set
CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y
# CONFIG_NFSD is not set
CONFIG_LOCKD=y
CONFIG_LOCKD_V4=y
CONFIG_NFS_COMMON=y
CONFIG_SUNRPC=y

And also here, reverting the above seem to fix the panic.

Ideas?
