Not saying that the client is _generating_ the stale filehandle errors, only saying that they appear to go away when I boot the _client_ into older 2.6.9 kernels.
That would point to some pretty nasty memory corruption issues on the
client then (affecting the cached filehandle in the inode itself).
So... I can't see that any NFS client changes have been pushed to Linus
after the release of 2.6.9-rc2. Is the latter afflicted with the ESTALE
problem?
