    This feels like something new but until the VFS/BIO/NFS patches are 
    committed to -4.x it isn't possible to tell.  It could be a lost buffer
    due to the nfs B_DONE bug. 

    We know that there are almost certainly still problems with NFS related
    to sillyrename and/or if the server modifies files directly.
