I think I have to disagree.

I hit this bug with a clean checkout of linux-2.6 and I also bisected
against the linux-2.6 repo.
(I did however use a Fedora rawhide kernel config as starting point,
so presumably there were a lot of debug options activated)

When Shirley Ma sent the fix, I did verify that linux-2.6 without
the fix did not work, and that everything worked fine with it applied.


Regards,
Thomas
