My mistake I didn't read your mail clearly enough... I know of 1 possible hang in that patchset (a hang which also affects the standard 2.4.19 kernel): The spinlock in xprt_write_space() needs to be converted to a bh-safe spinlock. The race should be very rare, but definitely exists (it's been fixed BTW in the newer patchset)... Do you have any details on the hangs in question that might help?
