Hi Martin,

Thank you very much for the list of commits! As we are still dealing with a 
driver issue with the Genode 22.11 release [1], I cherry-picked these commits 
to our fork based on the 22.08 release.

I'm not sure how much value it has to you when my tests are based on 22.08 
(with the commits you mentioned), but in case you are curious here are my 
findings.

After running my scenario multiple times, the system does not behave the same 
way in each iteration. There are two different behaviors that I noticed:

1. The two client crash - which for the overall system is good as a heartbeat 
monitor can recover the system into the desired state again:
```
no RM attachment (READ pf_addr=0x100004 pf_ip=0x10e3e194 from pager_object: 
pd='init -> init -> fs_client1' thread='ep')    
Warning: page fault, pager_object: pd='init -> init -> fs_client1' thread='ep' 
ip=0x10e3e194 fault-addr=0x100004 type=no-page  
[init -> init] Error: A fault in the pd of child 'fs_client1' was detected  
Kernel: IPC await request: bad state, will block  
Warning: page fault, pager_object: pd='init -> init -> fs_client2' 
thread='pthread.0' ip=0x6f4b0 fault-addr=0x403befd0 type=no-page  
[init -> init -> fs -> init] Error: Uncaught exception of type 
'Genode::Id_space<Genode::Parent::Client>::Unknown_id'  
[init -> init -> fs -> init] Warning: abort called - thread: ep
```

2. `rump` (short for a `vfs_server` with `rump` plugin) restarts while the rest 
of the system does not print any log messages. In this case we cannot recover 
via the heartbeat monitor as there is no change in the `init` state report. 
Further, the clients don't seem to be functioning correctly. E.g. one of them 
being a TCP server that won't respond to networking traffic anymore. Could it 
be that somehow the `vfs` plugin can't handle the interruption of the 
`File_system` session? 
```
[init -> init -> fs -> init -> rump] rump: /genode: file system not clean; 
please fsck(8)
```

I'm not sure if this information is of value to you. Especially when my 
scenario is based on Genode 22.08. I will test this again once we have the 
22.11 or the 23.02 release in.
