Subject: nfsd caused slab corruption in test9

Hello. I'm not quite sure whom to send this to, so my appologizes if you
aren't the right people.

Two linux boxes, both running Debian Testing, both x86 with 2.6.0-test9.
The nfs client was running the nhfsstone stress test against an ext3 NFS
exported share. After about an hour (I forgot it was running), the console on the
server woke up and spit this out:


Slab corruption: start=c9df6bcc, expend=c9df6c8b, problemat=c9df6bcc
