[Bug 580952] Re: Log messages: "CIFS VFS: ignoring corrupt resume name"

[Philippe Gauthier]

Thanks Willem! The question about the regression is only there to add a
tag to the bug report. See [1] for more information about the regression
tags. For now, we will assume it always been broken ;)

Since it looks like we have hit a genuine kernel bug and we have the
basic information about the current configuration, I am marking this bug
as Confirmed, and also adding the "needs-upstream-testing" tag. This
means that it would be nice to verify if the bug is still present when
using a stock kernel (that is, not customized by Ubuntu.) The complete
details are explained here [2]

To install the mainline kernel, you need to download the linux-image
package from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/daily/current/  corresponding to the architecture of your
system (i386). To install it, run the following command in the directory
where the package has been downloaded:

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

There should be a new option line in the boot loader after you restart
(hold the Shift key to get to the menu.) If the bug is still there, we
will send the bug to the upstream kernel developers. Otherwise we will
try to track back what change in the Ubuntu kernel causes this problem.
Thanks in advance!
