I have seen that this patch is applied in the 3.4 stable rt series.
As we are using the 3.0 stable rt kernel I have tested this patch on this
kernel series (on a Freescale i.MX31 based board) and have not found any
problems so far.
Is there something I have missed why this patch has not found its way
in the 3.0 series ?

Thanks in advance,
Michael
