I'm really sorry that my post goes that way. It was never my intention 
to blame anybody for anything.

I just didn't know the things work and was just wondering that Redhat 
had a fix which wasn't pushed back to vanilla 2.6.32. But i also didn't 
know that the xfs codebase is totally different due to other backports.

I'm sorry.
