mount log with TRACE output

Description of problem:
"Stale file handle" warnings are seen while doing untar operation when a new brick is added. Though untar operation does not break.

Volume type: I started with a single brick, plain distributed volume.


How reproducible:
All the time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a distributed volume
2. Start Linux untar (any untar)
3. Add-brick
