I've also been using autofs4 all across the board for the last year or
so, although with amd, not automounter. I still get the occasional
"self-destruct in 5 seconds" message once in a blue moon, usually on
daemon shutdown when it unmounts the autofs mountpoint. It could be that
amd does something wrong -- although I doubt it, I wrote that code :) --
still it shouldn't cause kernel problems, no matter what.
IIRC, the self-destruct message is printed when the filesystem still has
inodes with non-zero i_count. So it's an inode leak. But I haven't
hacked filesystems in over one year, so my memory could be a bit fuzzy.
[Talking about 2.4.20 here, BTW]
