On 3.16.0 kernels, whether compiled by myself or the stock Debian
kernel, if I have program accessing a file on a CIFS-mounted file system
(specifically playing an audio file), and restart the samba server on
the remote machine, I might get a brief pause, but no major problems.
On 3.17.0-rc1 and later I get a complete machine lock-up.

Has anyone else experienced similar?
I'm happy to supply any further details and try test fixes.
Arthur.
I'm still getting the problem with kernel 3.17.0-rc5
Has anyone been able to reproduce the problem?
Arthur.
I was off sick this past week but completed the bisect:
