Bug#582281: Bug fix confirmation
I see that this bug has already been marked resolved, but I just wanted
to confirm that the backport of the upstream fix for this bug to kernel
2.6.32, which was originally written for a 2.6.35 kernel, does indeed
fix the problem. I don't know if upstream backported the fix to 2.6.32
or if the Debian kernel team wrote their own patch, but package
linux-source-2.6.32 version 2.6.32-20 does show the change to
fs/partitions/ibm.c, and running a test case using stock kernel package
linux-image-2.6.32-5-s390x version 2.6.32-20 shows that the problem has
been fixed. Nice work, kernel team! Thanks! I can go back to running
stock kernel images again instead of custom builds with custom patches.
And thanks to upstream too! Peter, Moritz, Ben, thank you all.
