Not with the power of multiplexing. Something like this, perhaps?

Ok, I tried that and I got a nice clean fix. For 2.6.22. Backporting this to 2.6.21 creates havoc, as a number of cleanup patches as well as changes to highmem code get in the way.

Andi, do you really want to deal with the conflicts this will create for the paravirt queue for 2.6.22, or would you rather apply the dumb yet simple and non-confrontational workaround I have been trying to get applied to 2.6.21?
