[OpenAFS] OpenAFS 1.2.7 on Linux 2.2.19 kernel: oops with 'increase -stat parameter on afsd(VLRU cycle)' again?

[Rainer Toebbicke]

Hello all,

I've got the feeling I've seen this mentioned recently but somehow can't find 
it now:

We upgraded a couple hundred RedHat 6.2 kernel 2.2.19 from OpenAfs 1.2.3+ to 
OpenAFS 1.2.7 and now run into something that looks like triggered through an 
'rsync' the system crashes with

Nov 12 02:12:02 lxplus026 kernel: Increase -stat parameter of afsd(VLRU 
cycle?)<1>Unable to handle kernel paging request at vi\rtual address ffffffff

We did NOT see this under 1.2.3.  The '-stat' is set to 10000 already!

Any ideas?
