Dear Chuck, please use following patch instead. ----- New struct nfsd4_blocked_lock allocated in find_or_allocate_block() does not initialized nbl_list and nbl_lru. If conflock allocation fails rollback can call list_del_init() access uninitialized fields and corrupt memory. v2: just initialize nbl_list and nbl_lru right after nbl allocation.
