Notes:
bwh> The upstream fix (rewrite of mbcache) is too intrusive to backport.
bwh> We will mitigate this with cond_resched() as suggested in comment 1
bwh> on the bz.k.o bug report. I didn't want to add the no_mbcache mount
bwh> option as in comment 12 because it's a uAPI extension, but it has
bwh> now been added upstream (commit cdb7ee4c6327) so I think it would be
bwh> reasonable to add it to supported stable releases.
bwh> The problem seems to have been introduced (or exacerbated) by commit
bwh> 1f3e55fe02d1 in 3.15, which added a retry loop in mb_cache_entry_alloc().
