Heh, I'm having a bit of trouble following. Are you saying that the changes would be too big for -stable? If so, I'll send out reverts of the culprit patches and then reapply them for this cycle so that it can land together with the rcu changes in the next merge window, but it'd be great to find out whether the rcu changes are enough for the issue that Christian is seeing to go away. If not, I'll switch to a different locking scheme and mark those patches w/ stable tag.
