For now I think it should be dropped.  There is a fix for the problem
in that comment, but so far only one person has tested it (in fact,
only one person has reported having the problem).  For details, see the
thread starting here:

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130132879827993&w=2

When the fix is approved and goes into the other stable kernels, then 
you can merge both patches.
