Any progress on this? Linus' latest kernel (2.6.37-rc5-git3) still has the problem. And this is a regression, so I don't think you can just ignore it.
Is there a bug opened to track this bug already? I couldn't find one on bugzilla.kernel.org, but maybe I missed it. If there is none, I'll create one.
Was it not fixed by this commit? http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdif...
Not, it wasn't.
If not, open a bug and attach the dmesg with the error messages.
Does the attached patch fix it?
Yes it does, thanks!
If you consider that user-space applications failing these tests are broken, maybe you could use printk_once() to let them know? Otherwise I suspect they will never get fixed. I think there's a way to get the name of the faulty process and include it in the message.
