Actually my bad. Turns out LTIB creates dates in perl relative to GMT,
not local, so the date flipped from 20090209 to 20090210 when I tried
that fix at 17:41 EST (-0500), and since I was loading "yesterday's"
version, it still failed. Things work now with the change to pass
GFP_NOFS to kmalloc()...
