    Bisection now points to:

    6d74743b088d116e31fe1b73f47e782ee2016b94 is the first bad commit
    commit 6d74743b088d116e31fe1b73f47e782ee2016b94

    NFS: Simplify O_DIRECT page referencing

    The O_DIRECT code shouldn't need to hold 2 references to each
    page. The
    reference held by the struct nfs_page should suffice.

    I was going to revert that from 3.5.0-rc3 to confirm that my
    problem with backups was gone, and then give it more extended
    testing to prove firefox downloads were ok, but 6 of 11 hunks
    failed, the code has changed and I'm not familiar with it.

    So, for the moment I'm not 100% sure that this is indeed the
    problem.
