I think that Patrick means that you have to merge both patches and
include the changelog that *explicitly* states that this is not just a
cleanup but a bugfix, otherwise it won't get into 2.6.27.

BTW, include the Reported-by tag. Ingo Molnar recently told us to do so
in all of our patches. I don't care about credits but this is supposed
to be "good practise" to encourage testers.
