As a note: this does not happen during shutdown. Well, maybe it does but
that was not invoked at the time of the crash.
The test was:
mount /dev/nbd0 /mnt -o noatime,discard,barrier=1 (or without -o)
and then on that mountpoint
iozone3 [...]

Kernel 3.2 also exhibits this sudden:
[ 489.655034] block nbd0: shutting down socket
[ 489.655093] end_request: I/O error, dev nbd0, sector 358648
[ 489.655571] block nbd0: queue cleared
errors but no crashes.

As I wrote above.
But also with just plain mount /dev/nbd0 /mnt. This is always with a
filesystem build with mkfs.ext4 -j. Furthermore, this is with the stock
nbd-server (yes and with my nbd server but let's ignore that one for
now). I always mount with noatime and I only test with iozone (iozone3
package in debian).
iozone -j 1024 -s 2g -r 128k -I -f test -+w 7
nbd device is 16GB
