You're a wizard!

Either the pre-16 patch fails on an Ingo-patched raid1.c with:
Hunk #1 FAILED at 211.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 303.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 719.
3 out of 3 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to drivers/block/raid1.c.rej
or Ingo's RAID patch fails after applying pre-16 with:
Hunk #7 FAILED at 143.
Hunk #8 succeeded at 207 (offset 4 lines).
Hunk #10 FAILED at 284.
Hunk #11 succeeded at 395 (offset 8 lines).
Hunk #13 FAILED at 864.
Hunk #14 succeeded at 1223 (offset 12 lines).
3 out of 15 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to drivers/block/raid1.c.rej
No matter what, the diff is too damn big for me to hand crank. And I never got
it down to one chunk rejected.

Not sure how you managed it. I'm going to have to settle for 2.2.14, and see
if I can find out what "instability problems" you're talking about.
