I have this queued for 2.6.31 but have been on jury duty for the last 2
weeks so I'm hoping to get the pull request to Linus today now that I'm

Was very unimpressed with the first version of the patch I saw, which
would have given me a potential buffer overflow if I'd just hard-coded
the buffer size AFAICT.
