The 3.5.0-28-generic_3.5.0-28.48~bjf+lp1167114+04_amd64 booted fine for me.

Re comment #108: I have just been testing for proper booting in multiple trys, including from a cold restart. To pass all the boots must work. Since these are test kernels I am only looking for the bug in question, assuming the other patches in the sequence may break and later fix other problems.

The bisecting process assumes there is a particular patch where preceeding kernels don't have the bug and subsequent kernels do. Although this may not always be true, it does help identify when in a sequence of patches the bug is introduced, short of trying each patch in the sequence sequentionally.
