Comment # 34 on bug 1169774 from Jan Kara

Fabian, are you sure this is the same problem? I mean was this consistently
failing like this for past 6 months when the change was introduced? AFAIU
you're speaking about the 'failed' builds on 'sheep' and 'goat' hosts, aren't
you? 'lamb', 'cloud', and 'build' hosts seem to work fine.

If the start of the problem indeed dates back 6 months, I'd like to check
whether mounting the filesystem with 'dioread_lock' mount option indeed fixes
the issue. What would be the easiest way to try that with OBS? The option needs
to be passed either to mount, to mke2fs (as part of default mount options), or
I can provide patched kernel with modified defaults...
