Dave, Please find attached a patch that fixes a boot time regression caused by commit f1befe71fa7a79ab733011b045639d8d809924ad. It has been reported to fix at least one user's boot problems. I think it is also likely the source of the problems reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127869783002454&w=2 rtg -- Tim Gardner tim.gardner@canonical.com
