Hi! Just wanted to add that this bug doesn't exist in the latest kernel I got from the SCM (2.6.27-rc3). So it got fixed in between 2.6.26 and now somewhere; I couldn't zero in on the patch which Adam pointed out. But anyway...

Granted that it was raised by a non-maintainer, and that you don't use USB sticks. But that doesn't imply that all users won't have it. In fact, I'd really want this to be RC, but I don't want to fall into anyone's bad books, so I'll just stop with making a request for a severity upgrade. >>> I found the attached patch somewhere on lkml.

The latest version on git.kernel.org seems to have his fix. Commit 59f4ff2ecff4cef36378928cec891785b402e80c [1] seems to have been added a week ago. HTH. Thanks to all.
