This looks like a biggish change for after -rc6, and the commit
message doesn't tell me what dire things will happen if the patch
doesn't go in, or what systems see this breakage, or whether this is a
regression since 2.6.26 (I assume it isn't). It doesn't even tell me
why not being thread-safe is a problem on a UP machine.
So... why does this fix need to go in at this stage?
We can probably hold off on that one as no one is screaming, can you
cherry pick Timur's .dts patch as its a clear bug?
