thanks for this contribution but this problem was already fixed in
r39224.

As I use the prebuilt version, rather than svn, I needed this patch.

And a general note: We adapt our Linux kernel code to a new version
not before at least -rc1 is available (the changeset was comitted at
the day when 3.2-rc1 was released). But early warnings pointing us to
such problems are greatly appreciated!

This cycle, I did not run any 3.1-git kernels that would have shown the problem.

Could you post any such patches in this list, or at least warn users that such a patch is needed?

Thanks,

Larry
