A 16-bit TSS is only 44 bytes long. So make sure to test for the correct size on task switch.
This should be stable material as well. I can provide a patch that applies on .32 and .33, or what will be the procedure?
I'd like to drop the Cc: stable and maintain stable queues explicitly (in kvm-updates/2.6.3[23]). I'll fast-forward these to current -stable, please send patches against them. These branches will be autotested before submission, a step that is missing in the current scheme of things.

A 44-byte TSS has a limit of 43 (just like a 4GB segment has a limit of 0xffffffff), so there is an off-by-one here.
