Can you please explain that lockdep reference?
I don't think lockdep really forces on interrupts, does it?

BTW the one problem I have with this patchkit is that it's clearly
no stable candidate and I was hoping for a stable fix too.
Any chance to at least approve my original patch for .32/.33 only?
