Hi.
I strongly disagree with this commit. Some freak back-ported it into 2.3.32 and since then fear and suffering was brought to many innocent people. It took me straight 3 hours of bisecting & testing to find out why latest "stable" "longterm" 2.6.32 kernel (used as Xen PVops) won't even boot on latest CentOS' standard dom0.
Something's wrong up there in the heavens. Can we get a working kernel on kernel.org, please, and more testing/reviewing in the future?
Thanks.
