[OpenAFS] afsdb feature locking up afs_ioctl?

[Mike Polek]

When the -afsdb flag is used for afsd, there appears to be
an extra process that gets started to loop in the
AfsdbLookupHandler function. (Process id 12269 below.)
It looks like this process is holding /proc/fs/openafs/afs_ioctl
open. Is this intended/necessary? Or an accidental side
effect of something? The reason it's important to me is that
I can't umount /proc while the process has the open file
descriptor, and I need to umount /proc in order to properly
get my system booted after a pivot_root.

I could get around it by creating a CellServDB file,
but the -afsdb feature is *sooooo* convenient... :-)

Fedora Core 3, 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 kernel, openafs 1.3.79

Thanks in advance.
