Can you tell me what the upstream commit ID of your kernel is?  (before any
patches are stacked on it)

If you can modify your kernel, can you find the following in fs/netfs/:

buffered_read.c:127:			new = kmalloc(sizeof(*new), GFP_NOFS);
buffered_read.c:353:	folioq = kmalloc(sizeof(*folioq), GFP_KERNEL);
buffered_read.c:458:	folioq = kmalloc(sizeof(*folioq), GFP_KERNEL);
misc.c:25:		tail = kmalloc(sizeof(*tail), GFP_NOFS);

and change the kmalloc to kzalloc?

David
