Jens, Tom fixed my "boken trace magic" issue. Please apply. Thanks, Martin From: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@xxxxxxxxx> Blktrace failed to lock reader threads on the cpu used by the corresponding writer. This resulted in stale data being consumed when blktrace accidently read at a position that was being written to at the same time. This issue surfaced as "bad trace magic" warnings emitted by blktrace tools. The problem occured on an SMP System z machine. The patch fixes the issue.
