Reading the thread, it actually seems like Michael wanted to submit the patch much like the aforementioned one of mine: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2008/1/18/580583 but haven't done so in time, and as the result, the wrong one stuck in. But this is never too late to correct, I hope.
So I see 2 options: either revert the patch completely, or revert the dependancies like Michael suggested initially (if I understand his suggestion right). Both patches are here, in this thread. Thoughts?
