Some of them are quite serious too - some stuff is basically unusable in
2.6.28rc due to the vmalloc bug.

Is there any reason why someone (Rafael ?) shouldn't simply submit all of
those patches that look sensible, are reported to fix regressions and
whose maintainer has not provided a reason to NOT apply them into the
tree ?
