Hello,

The bugs listed are over a month old, and haven't been addressed yet.
It would be appreciated if corresponding maintainers identify whether
the bugs have been fixed, or need to be worked on, and take
appropriate action.

In most cases, reporters are standing by and ready to provide
information and necessary testing.
Thanks!

DVB-USB UMT-010 driver has certain oops when installed
01/09/2008
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9720
In the umt-010 driver the struct umt_properties sets the number of
URBs for transfer to 20.
But in dvb-usb.h MAX_NO_URBS_FOR_DATA_STREAM is set to 10. This causes
an oops for all devices which use the umt-010 chipset when they are
inserted.

KEXEC=============================================================

kexec buffer error
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9693
01/05/2008
2.6.24-rc6-git9 works as expected. git10 fails with root device not found


DRIVERS===========================================================

Two small bugs detected by code review:

physmap does not have a release() function
01/05/2008
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9690
Summary: Pretty trivial addition of the release()

hgafb module is broken & unmaintained
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9689
This one also needs release() function


FILESYSTEMS======================================================

journal_data mount option causes filesystem corruption with blocksize != 4096
01/05/2008
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9692
Appears to be e2fsck problem


ALSA==============================================================

SC-5200 + wine = System freeze
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9649
12/27/2007
-- Motherboard: Asus A8R-MVP
-- Harddrive: Samsung 200Gb
-- Soundcard 1: Onboard
-- Soundcard 2: Trust SC-5200
Running any part of wine freezes up the whole system. Both SSH
connections, the normal X screen and any other device, including sound
played by for example music players, freezes up. After about 10
seconds the system reboots.
By removing my second sound card it works. By disabling my onboard
sound it still causes the freeze.


Networking=========================================================

An ioctl to delete an ipv6 tunnel leads to a kernel panic
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8895
8/16/2007
Summary: The mip6d HA was modified to make a redundancy evolution,
when an HA is interrupted, the other takes over, this leads to some
creation/deletion of routes and tunnels.

Date: 12/11/2007
Summary:
...bug in the bonding driver...bond->lock should always turn BH off,
even on read lock.
Handled: Herbert Xu
Problem and solution has been identified, but the bug stalled -
probably needs someone to submit an actual patch
