I already submitted a patch to fix that and Linus merged it.
Use current -bk*

The MSI code is unfortunately quite broken and will need more
work to really work on anything except IA32.

Unfortunately the current -bk* would not apply cleanly. For eg,
patch-2.6.1-rc1-bk3 does not apply to 2.6.1-rc1. Maybe when 2.6.1-rc2 is out
I shall try it out at that time.

(BTW I have tried 2.6.1-rc1-x8664-1, and all is fine with that.)

It applied fine for me. Maybe your trees are corrupted.

There's one bug in there that breaks it on some boxes.

Thanks Andi. With a clean 2.6.1-rc1 tree and -bk3 patch all is well.
