Hi Andrew,

Sorry, forgot to CC lkml when I sent the first one.

I got this oops on my machine when I ran df on another one which have 
mounted a few NFS shares from my machine. I got 5 more pretty much 
identical ones within 10 seconds after the first one (haven't seen 
any more after these though). Also, dmesg is filled with, about a 
gazillion of these:
[15164.017991] RPC request reserved 9136 but used 9268
[15164.037431] RPC request reserved 9136 but used 9268
[15164.052988] RPC request reserved 9136 but used 9268

Files are also getting corrupted when transfered from my machine, but 
using my machine as client works fine.

oops here:

This architecture has variable length instructions, decoding before 
eip
is unreliable, take these instructions with a pinch of salt.
