Bernd,

that is problem not related to stack size.
mountd should encode {sb->sb_dev, inode->i_no} in own structure, but for mount 
v1 sb_dev too short to store full sb_dev (it is 16bit, but nfs fid v1 has 8 for 
it) bit but lustre client can generate that.
in that case nfsd got invalid NFS fid to client and broken to find correct 
inode to get attributes and return -ENOENT. in that case ls -l will show "?" 
instead of real inode attributes.
