Interesting.

Please test the attached patch[*] against a 3.1 or newer kernel,
for example by performing the following steps:

 0. prerequisites:

        apt-get install git build-essential

 1. get the kernel history, if you do not already have it:

        git clone \
          git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

 2. configure, build, test:

        cd linux
        git fetch origin
        git checkout origin/master
        cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config; # current configuration
        scripts/config --disable DEBUG_INFO
        make localmodconfig; # optional: minimize configuration
        make deb-pkg; # optionally with -j<num> for parallel build
        dpkg -i ../<name of package>; # as root
        reboot
        ... test test test ...

   Hopefully it reproduces the bug.  So

 3. try the patch:

        cd linux
        git am -3sc /path/to/the/patch
        make deb-pkg; # maybe with -j4
        dpkg -i ../<name of package>; # as root
        reboot
        ... test test test ...
        
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
