Hi Rafael,
	I got regression report from Hans de Bruin<jmdebruin@...net.nl>,
Keith Busch <keith.busch@...el.com>, and Arthur Marsh
<arthur.marsh@...ernode.on.net>. Hans and Keith also reports
the patch fixes the regression. For Arthur's case, the debug
patch works for him, but the formal patch based on the debug
patch fails, so I need to do more investigation about this.
Is there any other report related to commit 4d6b4e69a245 so
I could help to investigate?
Thanks,
Gerry
