Ping? I know at least two people have read this patch, but it hasn't appeared in the usual integration branches yet, and I've seen no actionable suggestion to improve it. I've provided two non-overlapping rationales for it. Is there something else you are looking for?
This patch is a fix for a simple data corruption bug. It (or some
equivalent fix for the same bug) should be on its way to all stable
kernels starting from 2.6.32.
Thanks
