From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

This reverts commit 2fa7a155b25160696cd77cdd995536cf5e172e20 which is
commit d5bb334a8e171b262e48f378bd2096c0ea458265 upstream.

Lots of people have reported issues with this patch, and as there does
not seem to be a fix going into Linus's kernel tree any time soon,
revert the commit in the stable trees so as to get people's machines
working properly again.
