   It's this kernel bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8246   
      
   I've added ec_intr=0 to my kernel commandline to get reasonable   
   boot/suspend/resume times and this prevents ACPI events.  How do I get   
   notified when the mentioned patch made it into the mainline kernel?  I'm   
   already in the CC list of that bug.
