Sorry for some reasons bugzilla didn't reassign the bug to me and i didn't
notice it.

I consider 2.6.9 almost in freeze and waiting 2.6.10 to start adding new
features since 2.6.9 is now the default kernel for ubuntu.

I know that such feature is "safe" to enable, but i always add an extra
bit of paranoia when it goes to "default".
