Ping?

Maybe just a one-line reply isn't THAT difficult?

We've a data corruption bug in current longterm stable kernel
series which is known and has a fix and tagged for -stable for
over half a year already...
  Greg, any idea why this patch was not included?
I have no idea, sorry, that was way back in August of 2011, I can barely
remember what patches were and were not applied last week...

If it's still needed for 3.0, let me know and I'll be glad to queue it
up.
Yes. it is still needed. The commit ID of the change is
dccaf33fa37a1bc5d651baeb3bfeb6becb86597b.
