so...  afaict we have some fairly significant problems in here and a
version 2 of the patchset is in order?

If so, when preparing that patchset please do have a think about which
of the fixes you believe should be backported into 2.6.25.x and prepare
the patches so that those fixes come first, to ease that backporting.

Thanks.
