Note that it's quite hard for me to figure out all the details of that
problem since it seems to be scattered accross various email threads
referring to vastly different kernel versions etc...

Can you guys open a bug at kernel.org's bugzilla, CC me, and put
relevant informations (dmesg logs, description of the problem, etc...)
with a -current- upstream kernel please ?

Cheers,
Ben.
