Where things are actually broken we'll want the fix in stable kernel trees so ideally we'll have the following: 1) Your current fix applied asap marked for stable. 2) Dmitry's patch resurfaces and allows us to follow up in a cycle or so with cleanups that move every case over to that, hopefully avoiding any further repeats of this problem! If you can role a response to the point Lars raised and send an updated series that would be great. Next set of fixes to head towards mainline will be next weekend at the earliest anyway so we have a bit of time to tidy up!
