Please get into the habit of testing your patches against upstream
kernels. Merely testing that it applies is not enough.

All patches that are submitted for mainline inclusion must be *runtime*
tested against a mainline kernel.

Also it would be nice if you could offer steps on how to reproduce, that
way we can extend our testing to make sure we never regress.
