We think we've tracked this down to not a kernel revision but the upgrade
from gcc to 4.2, and specifically its treatment of signed integer overflow
as undefined.
Could you try this patch and see if it fixes the problem for you?
I'm not the original reporter, but I experienced the same symptoms. I
can confirm that the patch fixes the bug.
Sorry, family health issues kept me offline for a while.
However, the problem is indeed solved (and now I can build that .23
kernel as well) - thanks !
