Sounds plausible.  That patch was applied upstream as v3.2.30~126, so
please test 3.2.30-1 once it is available.

If impatient before then:

 0. prerequisites:

        apt-get install git build-essential

 1. get the kernel history, if you do not already have it:

        git clone \
          git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

 2. fetch point releases:

        cd linux
        git remote add stable \
          git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
        git fetch stable

 3. configure, build, attempt to reproduce the bug:

        git checkout v3.2.29
        cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config; # current configuration
        scripts/config --disable DEBUG_INFO
        make localmodconfig; # optional: minimize configuration
        make deb-pkg; # optionally with -j<num> for parallel build
        dpkg -i ../<name of package>; # as root
        reboot
        ... test test test ...

    Hopefully it reproduces the bug.  So

 4. update:

        cd linux
        git merge stable/linux-3.2.y
        make deb-pkg; # maybe with -j4
        dpkg -i ../<name of package>; # as root
        reboot
        ... test test test ...

Thanks again for your help and patience.

Sincerely,
Jonathan
