I double checked, but I tried to cheat a bit and just applied that patch on
top of -rc2 instead of on top of the patch that breaks things according to
bisect.  Maybe there is more than one problem.  I'll try tweaking that single
patch tomorrow.

And, I built and booted twice to make sure I didn't screw up..but it had been
a long day of bisecting, so maybe I still messed up some how.

Ok, can try that too.
