Hi Trond

Thanks for looking at this.

I hear you - never trust the '?', but so far, this is all I have to go on.

This kernel thread dump is taken during a heavy write I/O test. If we
can even conclude anything from this info, it seems to me that it is
unusual for an nfsiod worker thread to sleep for 5-20 minutes.

We have not seen this again.
