Could you please remove this patch from your 2.6.34 tty pull request? Andrew Morton questioned whether this should actually be used yet[1], and I responded confirming his suspicions[2]. In addition, this patch has not "been in the linux-next and -mm releases for a number of weeks now", as you suggest in your pull request. Thanks!
