OK. It's always good to spell out in the change log whether it's a theoretical/unlikely bug, or one that's actually been hit in testing or the field. > I was wondering about the Fixes tag as well.

If it really goes back to the origin commit, then it's probably better to just say so and tag it for stable, rather than pointing to 1da177e4. I wonder though is there something else that changed that means this bug is now being hit but wasn't before? Or maybe it's just that we are testing on systems with large enough amounts of memory to hit this but which aren't using a direct mapping? cheers
