Very wise. It has taken a while (a day or two) to show up in the past 
after a reboot, but I have been running my system pretty hard and still 
no problems :-)

I mentioned your patched kernel in

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=155857

so hopefully others will confirm that all is well after testing.

Thanks again for your efforts.
