Corruption (file size incorrect for ecryptfs files) also happens with this kernel from ppa:kernel-ppa/pre-proposed :

Linux ubuntu 2.6.38-11-generic #51~pre201109230902-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 23 09:15:48 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

dmesg shows:

[ 245.530576] ecryptfs_decrypt_page: Error attempting to read lower page; rc = [-4]
[ 245.530600] ecryptfs_readpage: Error decrypting page; rc = [-4]
[ 245.531485] ecryptfs_decrypt_page: Error attempting to read lower page; rc = [-4]
[ 245.531494] ecryptfs_readpage: Error decrypting page; rc = [-4]

As noted previously, corruption of file sizes happens even when no errors show in dmesg or kern.log.
