I was going through my set of kernel patches that I've cherry picked on
LKML for my private kernel, and I noticed this hasn't gotten merged into
mainline yet. The original thread was here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/27/61
and addressed a panic after a umount reported by Sebastian Siewior. Was
this addressed in some other way?
