Update:
System uptime with the patch is 7+ days under extensive load at times and
I've had no issues to date.
I just checked the current linux git repo (3.13-rc2) and found this patch
has not been included.

Please advise if any further testing or validation needs to be completed to
help get this into -stable/-mainline.

Justin.
