OK I've run with these for a few days and they are doing
the Job perfectly. Not a single problem.

You may add tested-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharr...@panasas.com>
on all patches if you'd like.

Please push them ASAP to Linus. They fix a real life breakage
that's there since v3.3. At least now we are back to
the problems that where there for a long time.

Please also CC: Stable Tree <sta...@kernel.org> for 3.4
as clearly 3.4 is unusable at all right now.

I wish they would be sent to older stables as well, but
they won't patch, so it's not worth the effort.

I suspect this was always so since forever. I don't even know
how to configure such a thing. I know that the console I run
vmlinux from becomes tty0, until I halt (or crash). How do
you open more tty(s) and attach them to console windows?
I just use ssh for that.

(The setup of tty(s) for UML on Fedora is always such a pain
 and it changed 4 times since FC10, I always have to mount
 the image, figure out how to make tty1 a tty0, and delete
 all the other tty(s). perhaps I'm just clueless. Is there an
 easier way? Is there a way to tell UML to make tty0 be a tty1?
 Because in fedora tty0 is not defined.)

But please do not delay these patches because of old problems.
These can be solved later.

Thanks very much for fixing this, it's a life saver
Boaz
