I also seem to be experiencing this on high-traffic Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS / 2.6.35-23-server / x64 / NFS/SAN-connected systems.

No ext4. From one host's mounts: binfmt_misc, debugfs, devpts, devtmpfs, ext3, fusectl, nfs, proc, securityfs, sysfs, tmpfs.

It appears to be strongly correlated with heavy external I/O load; during this time, 'sync' will also hang indefinitely.
