Jeff,
FYI, I tried your patch; it causes the lvm process called out of the initramfs from an Ubuntu 8.10 system to blow up while trying to set up the root filesystem. The stack trace was:
generic_make_request+0x2a3/0x2e6 trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x111/0x135 mempool_alloc_slab+0xe/0x10 mempool_alloc+0x42/0xe0 submit_bio+0xad/0xb5 bio_alloc_bioset+0x21/0xfc blkdev_issue_flush+0x7f/0xfc syn_blockdev+0x2a/0x36 __blkdev_put_0x44/0x131 blkdev_put+0xa/0xc blkdev_close+0x2e/0x32 __fput+0xcf/0x15f fput+0x19/0x1b filp_close+0x51/0x5b sys_close+0x73/0xad
