A few others have also found this same problem and a patch that fixes this has been submitted to Andrew. I haven't had the chance yet to figure out what release of mm this fix may have made it into. The reason for this problem in the first place was that the patch which caused the problem was tested against 2.5.73 then applied into Andrew's 2.5.73-mm1 release. Some other changes that made it into 2.5.73-mm1 (in a non-nbd system that also hadn't been in 2.5.73 yet) interacted with the nbd change in the un-expected way you've seen. If there are still problems you can track back to nbd please let me know.
