I know that everyone has a huge backlog because of the recent problems
with vger.

Is is very important that this patch makes it into 2.6.25, since the bug
that it solves can be very painful on one hand, and on the other it is
very hard to trace. 
If you load the driver a second time without a full power down you will
not see any problem.

If it is needed I will gladly resubmit the patch.

Thanks
Eliezer
