Yes, but according to the comments in there, it is a regression from 2.6.33.
I marked is as such and linked it to the appropriate meta-bug entry, but we're
not going to list it, because we only list post-2.6.34 (and post-2.6.35)
regressions in the current cycle.

Thanks,
Rafael

This isn't a regression as according to your bug report, s/r has never
worked on your board with kms.  The kms and ums drm components are
completely different drivers even though they are compiled into the
same binary.

The patch was made by Vikas Chaudhary <vikas.chaudhary@qlogic.com> 
(CC:d) and sent to me by private me-mail. I was first dubious about 
possible endianness problem with qla4xxx private readq and writeq 
implementation but he told they forcefully tested it on PPC64 and it 
worked.

Last I heard from him on September 6th when he wrote he intended to push 
the patch upstream together with other patches the same week.

I think this should not be marked as a regression.  See the older reports of
very similar issues (in my LKML mail from September 3, logged in bugzilla in
comment #1)
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/15/76	(2.6.33-rc, xfs involved)
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/18/108	(2.6.32.y, ntfs involved)
and hch's analysis in the first of these two threads
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/19/267	(several filesystems and
						 other code paths)
So, unless my trace was a code path that only newly acquired that oldproblem
of other code paths, this is an older issue.  Alas this is not obvious to me
at least from the log that I got.

I did not have lockdep enabled on the machine which delivered the log during
the last few months or so; I just remembered to re-enable it at the occasion
of switching to 2.6.36-rc.
