Slight update to fix a regression in one of the memory corruption fixes,
we have another memory corruption myself/Keith are trying to track down,
but laptops with 1.8" disks are defeating us, but its only in a rare
unload case and may have been around for a while so it can probably live
in -next and go in via stable.

The following changes since commit e1d9694cae722d00a94fb58f901aa69c9c324a16:

Merge branch 'core-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip (2010-10-05 13:07:43 -0700)

are available in the git repository at:
