No, it doesn't trigger, but the hang is not as complete as I first
thought. A running iostat via ssh continues to give output for a while,
the serial console still reacts to return and prompts for login. But
after a while more and more locks up. The console locks as soon as I
sysrq-t.
Maybe it has also something to do with the place where I added the
printks (btrfs_scan_one_device). Also the 10k-print gets triggered
several times (though I only see 10 lines of output). Maybe you can
send me your test-module and I'll try that, so we have more equal
conditions.
What also might help: the maschine I'm testing with is a quad-core
X3450 with 8GB RAM.
