OK, uncle! I'll work on your helpful advice (thanks for that), but
it feels too risky for this stage of 2.6.23. Maybe I can come up with
something for a future release.
The changeset in the kernel is too risky _without_ the changes I described.
That's what I meant. Andrew already has a revert patch in -mm, and
the safest path seems like putting the reversion in 2.6.23 and working
on your advice post-2.6.23.
Ah, my apologies!
I read "I'll work on your advice, but it feels too risky" as describing
my advice as too risky, rather than the changeset currently in the kernel.
IMO the changeset should be resubmitted as two changes, separating the
probe behavior changes from the platform driver conversion. They are
two distinct changes, and that would allow git-bisect to identify the
culprit easily if future breakage occurs.
