[uml-user] host-fs problems with current kernel

[Toralf F. <tor...@gm...>]

There seems to be a problem with UML and hostfs.

When I start a current UML (Gentoo unstable Linux) and call
http://n22_uml/phpsysinfo/index.php?disp=dynamic , then sometimes (but
not every time) UML become unresponsive, 1 linux-3.6 process at the host
runs at 100%, nothing is written to the log, ssh into the UML isn't
longer possible, kill -9 is the only way.

If I comment out the entry in the /etc/fstab of the guest :

#n22:/                  /mnt/n22        hostfs          defaults

I (till now) not observed that issue.
