Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.11 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  Using fscache with NFS causes random kernel oops

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  It is hard to get an oops because the entire FS system seems to hang
  and /var/log/kern.log won't capture it.  I have managed to get a kdump
  capture. I think I told apport to submit the crash dump, but I'm not
  really sure if it worked, and I don't know where to look to see if it
  made it anyplace..

  fscache was working fine in oneiric at least, so this is a regression.

  I'm thinking this is probably the fix that needs to be backported:
