Bruce hi, thanks

Yesterday I hit this bug again. I rebased on Benny's tree which did not have them
for some reason. It's hunting me. ;-)

Just for Future reference, these patches were suppose to be submitted very early around
rc3 when we found them. This is what the -rcX are for, to test and fix what was broken
in the merge window.

Please forgive me I should have followed it through, but was too busy and forgot.

But in general you should always have an rc-fixes branch and bug fixes patches
should go there and not into the linux-next branch. And yes both branches should
be included in linux-next.

This way there is nothing to forget

Thanks
Boaz
