> Summary: ipaq oops on connecting "Vodafone VPA-II"
> Kernel Version: 2.6.21-rc1-git1
> Status: NEW
> Severity: normal
> Owner: greg@xxxxxxxxx
> Submitter: web.alexander@xxxxxx
Most likely a known bug I caused. This should help.
akpm:
- it is unknown what this patch does
- it _seems_ that it prevents the oops, but that's not clear
- The post-2.6.18 regression appears to still be unfixed.
