I'm actually surprised noone have reported it yet ....
Is it a known issue? Is there a patch I can try?
P.S. Any additional info is available by request.
P.P.S. I'm not subscribed to LKML, so please CC me.
Thank you,
Nick.

I'd like to confirm first patch queued for 2.6.34.5 (aka
11ac552477e32835cb6970bf0a70c210807f5673) does the trick for me too
