gvfd-smb is spinning at close 100% CPU and spamming journald

[Matthieu Patou]

On my laptop running Jammy the gvfd-smb process is consuming close to 100% CPU:
    PID UTIL. PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TEMPS+ COM.
 302018 mat 20 0 528384 14632 10068 R 100.0 0.1 2450:01 gvfsd-smb
   5741 mat 20 0 6882616 391964 112368 S 15.0 2.5 311:46.31 gnome-shell

I'm getting a ton of entries in systemd's user journal like:
Jan 29 14:03:33 artemis gvfsd[302018]: (process:302018): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 22:03:33.113: fail: Erreur d’acceptation de la connexion : Trop de fichiers ouverts
(error connecting too many open files)
journalctl |grep 'Jan 29 14:03:33' |wc -l returns 517 lines !

Seems highly similar to the bug reported here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/542.

The number of opened files is >1024:
ls -l /proc/302018/fd | wc => 1025

I'm using the following versions:
dpkg -l | grep vfs
