Here is an strace from a reduced test:
open("/mnt/bar", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT|O_LARGEFILE, 0644) = 3
pwrite(3, "\0", 1, 4292870144)          = 1
mmap2(NULL, 2097152, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0xffc00) = 0xb7ace000
pwrite(3, "\0", 1, 4294967296)          = 1
munmap(0xb7ace000, 2097152)             = 0
mmap2(0xb7ace000, 2097152, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0xffe00) = 0xb7ace000
pwrite(3, "\0", 1, 4297064448)          = 1
munmap(0xb7ace000, 2097152)             = 0
mmap2(0xb7ace000, 2097152, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0x100000) = 0xb7ace000
pwrite(3, "\0", 1, 4299161600)          = 1
munmap(0xb7ace000, 2097152)             = 0
mmap2(0xb7ace000, 2097152, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0x100200) = 0xb7ace000
pwrite(3, "\0", 1, 4301258752


The final pwrite never returns.
This is with 2.6.15-rc1 + Trond's NFS patch (-mm2 would die on strace).

The only change from the previous test is that this one uses munmap/mmap64 instead of
remap_file_pages.
