Like I said at the time, the patch is wrong because of the relocation of
the queue teardown.  I posted a corrected version, but did anyone test?
Anyway, I merged it on the grounds that it worked for me, but if you
could confirm with linux-next, that would be great (I'll send the pull
request shortly, since it now needs to go via the merge window and I'm
currently in mid journey to Russia.
