As I'm going through adding commits from Thomas's latest -rt patch set
into the stable-rt tree, some of the patches conflicted. Looking at the
conflicts, it seems that mainline has patches that should probably be
added to the stable tree. Here's what I found so far:

commit 1b71fe2efa31cd18c865db474a4cd473b6ab5281
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Sat Jul 16 23:43:58 2011 -0400

    ceph analog of cifs build_path_from_dentry() race fix
    
    ... unfortunately, cifs bug got copied.  Fix is essentially the same.

commit dc137bf553dbb6855bd7efc34fedcd03102455f7
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date:   Sat Jul 16 23:37:20 2011 -0400

    cifs: build_path_from_dentry() race fix
    
    deal with d_move() races properly; rename_lock read-retry loop,
    rcu_read_lock() held while walking to root, d_lock held over
    subtraction from namelen and copying the component to stabilize
    ->d_name.

These seem appropriate for stable, don't they?

Please ignore this. Seems it is in stable, but not in the branch I was
looking at.

Sorry for the noise :-p
