thanks Petr, we had this bug fixed later in the patches but lets pick 
your fix right now before merging anything else. Applied it to 
tip/x86/urgent.

Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-fixes-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git x86-fixes-for-linus

 Thanks,

	Ingo
