Hi, Justin
There is a similar bug report at:
http://marc.info/?t=131594190600005&r=1&w=2
The attached patch from Shaohua fixed the bug.
Could you have a try it?
Hi Lin/LKML,
Can you please provide text patch files for what you want me to apply?
I did read that e-mail thread and that could be the culprit, I will patch
and apply as soon as someone points to to the patch locations :)
