Subject: 2.4.19-pre5 ext2/3 unmount bug

If this has already been discussed, then just ignore me, but

I have a 2.4.19-pre5 kernel with preempt-kernel and lock-break
patches applied. When I unmount ext2/3 filesystems I usually
get a hard hang. About the only message I get is:

kjournald[125] exited with preempt_count 1

2.4.19-pre4 with same set of patches does not have this behaviour.
I'm not convinced that its confined to ext3 as unmounts of an
ext2 /usr partition without a journal caused a hard hang as well.

Does stock 2.4.19-pre5 shows the problem?
