SRU justification:

Impact: There are changes in the stable 2.6.24 tree that avoid problems with
the gdth SCSI driver. Without these changes, the kernel will panic on reboot or
when issuing certain control commands (see bug report)

Fix: The panic is fixed by:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git;a=commitdiff;h=94429518999e4e6b8f84807afa4bf089a63da0b4

but mentiones a WARN_ON triggered. This is addressed by another (earlier) patch in the stable tree:

Testcase: See bug report.
