Looks like this bug is known for months :-(
Ed Lin pointed to http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/23/268 with possible patch (that
unfortunately serialises access to storage devices, well...)
There is also: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7842
I'm running 2.6.22 with that patch now, did huge (few hours) rsync that
previously caused oopses and now everything works properly.
Can we get some form of this patch into Linus tree?
