Package: linux-image-2.6.18-5-686
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-13
Severity: normal

We have seen the same problems that where reported here[1] and hit it
mounting, copying and unmounting from windows server several times.
Then we realise we can easily reproduce this looping on:

PASSWD="xxx" mount -t cifs -o username=xxx,iocharset=utf8
//hercules/<share> /mnt/tmp/
umount /mnt/tmp

We have only seen the oops using iocharset=utf8 and cifs

And applying this patch [2] fix it too. So please consider applying it
into the debian kernel, as it's a serious bug (causes an oops) and
easy to trigger on samba (cifs) clients (since debian default encoding
is utf8).

Thanks,
Rodrigo

Marking 2.6.20 as closed.

For Etch, you could switch to the 2.6.24 based kernel added in 4.0r4:
