There is one known issue with the lru resize feature on i686 (it can
consume almost all the low memory). To know whether or not this is the
same problem, could you please try to disable lru resize on the client side
and see if you hit this bug again? To do so, you have to run the following
commands on the client(s):
lctl set_param ldlm.namespaces.*osc*.lru_size=$((NR_CPU*100))
lctl set_param ldlm.namespaces.*mdc*.lru_size=$((NR_CPU*100))
where NR_CPU is the number of cpus on the client.

Cheers,
Johann
