NFS Regression in commit 0b26a0bf6ff398

From: Eric B Munson

While testing some 2.6.38 work my rsync backup script started consuming
large amounts of memory (all available before dying with no more available
memory). I have bisected the problem back to 0b26a0bf6ff398. I am
unfamiliar with the NFS code so I don't know where to start looking for a
possible fix. My backups files from my home directory to an NFS mounted
directory. The NFS server is a Synology DS-411+ if it matters. Let me know
if there is any other information I can provide.
