(I forgot about this probably because lockdep was broken for me in 2.6.18-rc5-mm* - and previous bug appeared while mounting XFS, not umounting). 2006-07-03 locdep was merged 2006-07-28 - 2006-08-10 a few XFS fixes So I guess that binary search won't solve this mystery. > > Cheers, > > Dave. > -- > Dave Chinner > Principal Engineer > SGI Australian Software Group > Regards, Michal -- Michal K.
