While trying to find if there is an update for CentOS 8 "nfs-utils"
package, I came upon the thread on "linux-nfs" mailing list ...

  CPU lockup in or near new filecache code, 201912,
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=157599524312895&w=2 ;

  a patch, 201912,
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=157609449120027&w=2 ;

  more to come, 202001
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-nfs&m=157807452103938&w=2 ?


Now the question is will the fix be available on CentOS 8 anytime
soon, as above thread was concerned with, AIUI, kernel 5.5 (CentOS 8
kernel is hovering around 4.18)?

Not a FreeBSD issue anymore, however, seems like.
