I am having the same problem on ubuntu 16.04.2, kernel 4.4.0-75-generic,
and on a mint 18 system, kernel 4.4.0-21-generic. I have several cifs
mounts, and if any one server becomes unresponsive, then any process
attempting to access the mounts will hang indefinitely. If I unmount
using -l and wait several minutes, eventually these hung processes will
resume (with an error). I am mounting with the "soft" option.
The hung process stack looks like:
$ sudo cat /proc/7771/stack
