Right, this one was not meant for inclusion, similar to patch 5 in this
series.

Alan:
Part of the reason I asked for help getting the patches out is that
they need a lot of auditing, both for whether they still apply to
current kernels and for whether they are a good solution to the problem
at hand. When in doubt, it's probably better to leave out any patch
that looks like it might not be ready for inclusion, or that might
make thinks uglier in some way.
