I do.
The correct place to look for maintainer of a part of the linux kernel is
the MAINTAINERS file in the kernel source (usually also installed by
kernel-docs type packages).
Google would have told you that as well ("smbfs maintainer"), except that
Debian for reasons of unknown confusion have a package also named smbfs.

It's a previously reported problem (actually I think there have been more
than one bug with this effect). But it's not know what is causing this and
only some people are able to trigger it.

Are there any messages from the kernel after the first or second listings?
(dmesg, look for smb* stuff).
If not, could you take a tcpdump and send me/make it available for
download. (tcpdump -w filename -s 1600 port 139)
Btw, you haven't mentioned the samba and kernel versions you use.
