While testing V2.4.1 to check if I was still seeing the "assert(refcount > 0)" failure I reported on V2.4.0.3, which is still occurring with 2.4.1, I am also seeing cases of segfault errors. Three of the segfaults I have seen in my testing of V2.4.1 had identical backtraces, and the forth was at a different point in the code. From the command "dmesg -T | grep segfault"

The test I was running was the same test as given in the email with the subject: "assert in dec_state_owner_ref() with V2.4.0.3" which has multiple worker processes creating 1000 uniquely named directories and in each creates 11 256K files. It then does a "rm -rf" on the directory tree and starts over.
