Stefan, just wondering: was this ever addressed upstream? I assume it's
not, just wanted to be sure.

I'm a bit unsure what to do with this and consider asking Greg for
advice, as he applied the patch. On one hand it's *IMHO* clearly a
regression (but for the record,  some people involved in the discussion
claim it's not). OTOH the culprit was applied more than a year ago now,
so reverting it might cause more trouble than it's worth at this point,
as that could lead to regressions for other users.

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
