It's unclear what kernel this is against. It applies quite badly to mainline. I fixed all that up then lost the result :( It doesn't apply cleanly to 2.6.34 either.
I was going to steal your changelog and add it to Jason's patch but Jason's patch generates a reject storm against mainline too.
Giving up.
