Greg, there is a follow up to this patch that removes declarations from the
stack and makes them global within the file.  This was done to avoid a
-Wframe-larger-than warning that was found in with 0day kernel build service,
kbuild.

So I don't think this should go into -stable yet.  I've pushed a patch onto
LKML to resolve the kbuild warning, and hopefully on the x86 maintainers pick
it up.
