Nathan,

Does the bug only occur during a crash?

I have been running 2.6.17.x for awhile now (multiple XFS filesystems, all on UPS) - no issue?

Justin.

Does this problem exist in 2.16.6.x??

The change was merged after 2.6.16.x was branched, I was mistaken
in how long I thought the bug has been about.

I hope so because I assumed there simply wasn't a patch for 2.6.16 and
applied this 'best guess' to my servers and rebooted/remounted successfully.

Doing the correct change to 2.6.16.x won't hurt, but it's not
necessary.

Yep. As Chris said, 2.6.17 is the only affected kernel. I've
fixed up the whacky html formatting and my merge error (thanks
to all for reporting those) so its a bit more readable now.

cheers.
