I ask since this fix is vastly cleaner than the other > patch floating around, so I'd much rather pull this one in. I don't think I can't test it, since it seems to be some hard-to-hit race condition. It certainly doesn't seem to happen all the time - today was the first time I've seen it on one of my computers. But if you forward the actual patch to me (the one I see on lkml seems to be broken and doesn't compile cleanly because it's assiging a structure to a pointer), I'll try it out anyway.
