Is there any news on this bug, or is there an official kernel.org
place to track it?

Here are the only other two places I know of where this bug is being tracked:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1822629 (as linked before)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/834037 (Ubuntu bug tracking system)
