Hello Sasha!

This backported mvebu fix seems to have slipped through the cracks by
accident.  IIUC, the OpenWRT mvebu maintainer(s) are particularily
interested in having this bug fixed for 3.18-stable.  See this thread
for the original patch submission and discussion:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/127243

I'm including the full patch below for convenicence. It still applies
to the current 3.18-stable tree (apply with "git am --scissors" if you
use this email as source).

I hope Thomas, Imre or Andrew can fill in the details if more
background info is necessary...

I can confirm that this patch is needed in 3.18-stable.

Best regards,

Thomas
