Comment 38 for bug 509180

I got this traceback in syslog today, together with a different set of symptoms (no signs of padded files, but a process is helplessly hung; when I try to inspect the process with gdb or strace they hang too and must be SIGKILL:ed. And I cannot suspend). ecryptfs appears in the traceback so I thought it might be another symptom of the same problem. Using the standard lucid kernel.
