Ok, I tried that and I got a nice clean fix. For 2.6.22. Backporting
this to 2.6.21 creates havoc, as a number of cleanup patches as well as
changes to highmem code get in the way.

Andi, do you really want to deal with the conflicts this will create for
the paravirt queue for 2.6.22, or would you rather apply the dumb yet
simple and non-confrontational workaround I have been trying to get
applied to 2.6.21?
