You say you're booting -git4 but you're running kernel is Linux next from Aug.
26th  Can you confirm you see this boot failure with Linus's tree NOT linux
next?

Adding linux-ppc and linux-next lists.

I have seen something similar in my linux-next boot tests, so I will add
this patch to linux-next for today.

Hi,

The same problem occurs on the linux-tree , now that since the patch is integrated into linux-next,
im not able to find the problem with linux-next-20100827.

When will the patch be integrated with the linux-tree.

Thanks
Divya

By "the linux-tree" do you mean Linus' tree?

If so, benh is likely to ask Linus to pull the fix in the next few days.
