Please don't. I really want to see this fixed for ALL affected boards, not only for a small subset so everbody forgets it again and we run into it later again and again.
Trent - you have obviously already spend a lot of effort into analyzing this code - most probably more time than any other of us. Based on your experience and the effort you already spent I think it would be best if you could provided a patch to fix all boards.
Just as a clarification, are you asking Trent to *fix* it for all boards, or to generate a patch that will apply to all boards?
Specifically, I recall Trent's hesitation was he doesn't have access to most boards (not even all PPC boards), and he wasn't even sure it was a problem on some other ARCHes in the first place.
But, if you are asking for an off-the-cuff patch that can be applied to all boards without testing by Trent, then I am confident he would be willing to help here.
