I believe this will be necessary on production hardware.

I just realized tonight that my workarounds series never got merged.

After reviewing Ben and Chris's comments, I agree with all of them, so
I've dropped the unnecessary patches.  I also believe I shouldn't need
the pre-production workarounds I sent last time, so I've dropped those.

These two should apply to production hardware, so we probably want them.
