You should be able to fix this with ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.11-rc1/2.6.11-rc1-mm1/broken-out/cancel_rearming_delayed_work.patch and ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.11-rc1/2.6.11-rc1-mm1/broken-out/ipvs-deadlock-fix.patch I haven't pushed these along because I'm not very happy with the cancel_rearming_delayed_work.patch concept. But I forget why ;) It seems a bit livelocky. Let me think about it a bit more. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
