One small nit: could you please add the Reported-by line for Jeff Kirscher 
who reported the problem originally:

 Reported-by: Jeff Kirsher [off-list ref]
I'll make sure to add that to the commit message after
you successfully test Herbert's patch.

Thanks.
early indications are good: after about 15 random bootup tests the lockdep 
warning has not triggered. (it would trigger on every 2nd kernel before 
that - there's a 66% chance for lockdep to be enabled in my randconfig 
tests)
Sounds good.  I'll toss this into my net-2.6 tree, with Jeff's
reported-by and your Tested-by, and send this off to Linus
tonight.

Thanks everyone.
