The 2.6.31 based tree of ours doesn't have it, but the 2.6.32 and
2.6.34 based ones do.

I would consider adding that c/s to the .31 tree, but only if I knew it
indeed helps (with you saying .34 - though it's not really clear what
patch level you have, since I understand it's not a SuSE kernel you're
using - doesn't work for you either it doesn't seem like it would).

For the .32 tree we definitely know this works for others, and I have
no reason to believe that it got broken with the update to .34.
