I am fine with either way, and I will prepare one patch and let Jens

So guys, this needs to be done *now*.
And Jens - this is the last time I believe you when you say late
patches are required.
The buggy patch that introduced this problem was part of that very
late pull request that I already rejected once, and you then claimed
was absolutely required.
So the dicking around with the block layer stops *now*.
Seriously. I'm pissed off.
Believe me, I'm as impressed as you are...
I've queued it up and will run it through testing and send it off later.
I still think it's better to apply the fix, rather than revert the
original change.
I don't want to see anything even half-way questionable during the
whole next release window. Not even during the merge window. You need
to do some serious quality control, and re-think the whole "large
changes" model.
The timing was the issue here, and yeah, it didn't work out well this
time at all. It's a momentary lapse, we'll get it sorted for sure.
