The patch was applied. These 2 kernels were built from "clean" at the same time.

Yes it was.

Look closer it was built Feb 20 09:01:53. Not Feb 2 0 09:01:53. There is a space between the 2 and 0 because of a minicom linewrap I guess.

My double check is correct. both these kernels were built this morning from "clean" after your patch was applied.
I will do it all again from scratch if you wish.
Not a problem. I am at your disposal. I'm not ignorant when it comes to building and installing kernels.
Standing by. Mark
