According to what I researched on google (btw: you have the same
ability), state "D  Uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)" cannot be cleared
as it probably is a kernel process waiting for a disk write.  Clearing
would allow possible disk/data corruption.

Have you reverted to the earlier version and issued a bug report.  If you
do not, this conversation was a waste of time that will be remembered and
not repeated.
