Subject: Re: [PATCH] USB host: Fix lockdep warning in AMD PLL quirk

You mean 2.6.39-rc2 right? I'm asking because I hit the same warning
with 39-rc2 now too but it didn't appear with .38 - so it has to have
snuck in after the merge window. If so, you don't need the stable tag.

Also, is this the final version wrt code design so that I can test too?

Thanks.
