I do not have a system where I can test this, and it turns out that the code
in the current patch for 2.4.17 is indeed correct as far as I can see. I
missed the fact that the stsi_3_2_2() function is sysinfo.c contains a loop
to get all levels.
Sorry for the false alarm on that. I wish I had a system to test these things
on :)
