We've seen the following bug many times since we introduced new machines
running Ubuntu 18. Wasn't an issue older machines running Ubuntu 16.
Three different machines are affected, so it's rather not a hardware
issue.

(Full dmesg output attached)

After hitting this bug there are many cifs related dmesg entries,
processes lock up and eventually the systems freezes.


The share is mounted using:
//server/share  /mnt/server/ cifs 
defaults,auto,iocharset=utf8,noperm,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,credentials=/root/passwords/share,domain=myDomain,uid=myUser,gid=10513,mfsymlinks

Currently we're testing the cifs mount options "cache=none" as the bug
seems to be oplock related.
