does not seem to fix my testbox (see the crash log below). I've uploaded
the 40-02 patch with both of your fixes (maybe i mismerged something
somewhere). Does it boot on your box with PREEMPT_RT enabled? The patch
order is:

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.12-rc1.bz2
