I still think that patch is bogus. I don't know how it is still around.
I described the problem pretty completely here:
http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=4a6186696e7f15b3ea4dafcdb64ee0703e0e4487
Chandru effectively reverted my bugfix from that patch in this one.

No, I don't think so. There were some distro fixes but I couldn't
reproduce the bugs on mainline.
