The bugfixes are appropriate for 2.6.32 and should be backported into
-stable too, I think.  I haven't checked to see how long those bugs
have been present.

The cleanup is more appropriate for 2.6.33 so I had to switch the order
of these patches.  Hopefully the bugfixes were not dependent on the
cleanup.
