In precise kernel 3.20, when the nfs4 state manager gets unhappy, error printks are generated thousands of times per second, filling logs and filesystems rapidly.
This was reported and fixed in Debian - debian bug#666121
This is also fixed in kernel 3.2.14 via git commit 9a3ba432330e504ac61ff0043dbdaba7cea0e35a - see http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/30/674
Can this patch be cherry-picked for inclusion in the precise kernel? This shouldn't affect quantal since it's using kernel 3.5.
