Sure I can see that it is removed from the patch, but why and why is it
correct?

I which way is this backtrace giving any useful information about the
problem?

Interesting. You claim authorship on that patch and then you put my SOB
after yours just because you feel entitled to do so?
I surely appreciate the time you spent to analyze the problem and I
wouldn't have said anything if you just would have done the right thing:
1) Write a changelog which explains why the change is actually correct
2) Not wreckage the formatting which I intentionally did for readability
sake
3) Add 'Originally-by: Thomas Gleixner' or at least having the courtesy to
mention that this is not your work.
Thanks,
