This bug can cause local DoS in the host system.
Looks like some other patch is missing in 2.6.27.y. Not sure what it is. But it's safer to revert this patch for now. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
