Ok, I've fixed up the patch and applied it to a local tree that I've set
up to catch these things (it will live at
bk://kernel.bkbits.net:gregkh/linux-2.6.11.y until Chris Wright and I
set up how we are going to handle all of this.)

Feel free to start pointing stuff like this at me and chris (we'll also
be setting up an alias for it.)

thanks,
