I think this may be a separate issue.

That last comment on 2006-03-01 mentions that it was included in mainline.
The patch referenced in the other bug (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4380)
does seem to be included in the kernel Jay was running (I just doublechecked
the Fedora sources for that version).
