OK. Got it: [PATCH <= 3.6.y] aoe: do not call bdi_init after blk_alloc_queue http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/38957 That particular change (for <= 3.6.y) is not derived from the mainline commit you mention, but the other patch for 3.7.y is, and I included a reference to the mainline commit in the changelog message for the 3.7.y fix. [PATCH 3.7.y] aoe: merge 0a41409c5180 to avoid list corruption from extra bdi_init http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/38909 -- Ed Cashin ecas...@coraid.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
