2.6.31+2.6.31.4: XFS - All I/O locks up to D-state after 24-48 hours(sysrq-t+w available)

[Justin Piszcz]

Hello,

I have a system I recently upgraded from 2.6.30.x and after approximately 
24-48 hours--sometimes longer, the system cannot write any more files to 
disk (luckily though I can still write to /dev/shm) -- to which I have
saved the sysrq-t and sysrq-w output:

The problem occurs with 2.6.31 and I upgraded to 2.6.31.4 and the problem
persists.

Here is a snippet of two processes in D-state, the first was not doing 
anything, the second was mrtg.
