Greg and Kay:

When I boot 2.6.22-rc3 plus gregkh-all-2.6.22-rc3.patch, with an FC6
system (which includes a no-doubt somewhat altered version of udev
095), I get the follow message:

[ 32.904718] Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

This doesn't happen under vanilla 2.6.22-rc3.

Is this udev's fault or is it a problem in the kernel? If it is udev's
fault, is it fixed in more recent versions?
