I'm seeing this too, and something about it is causing my system to
hang.  Basically, when I come in the morning I can't do hardly anything,
including reboot.  Investigation has shown that it's because any attempt
to read the /proc/mounts file causes a permanent hang on the process
(can't even kill -9 etc.).  Lots and lots of programs, even ones like
"ls", try to read this file.  I have to power-cycle the system to
recover.  My system load is above 7, even though my CPU usage is
negligible (a sure sign that processes are hung in the kernel).

Last night I started a script that ran date, then cat /proc/mounts, then
sleep 15 and left it running all night.  I got the hang at 22:51 and
looking through my logs, sure enough right at that exact time I saw a
slew of these .Trash access errors show up in my /var/log/syslog file.
I'm going to continue to test this theory to see if it was just
coincidence or not.
