I'm now running 3.8 proper with only that patch plus my local
beautification-only (really shouldn't matter)
acerhdf updates (now properly split ;),
and so far fan behaviour seems fine, over various usage conditions.
Haven't really stressed it mischievously yet, though. Will do more testing.

So this now does not have any of the Schmitt trigger equivalent (?)
governor changes that were nicely discussed in this activity -
So what do we want to have committed, and what do we not,
and most importantly, does it all work fatally precisely correctly? ;)
(remember, this is thermal layer, not particularly a place for sloppiness)

Thanks,

Andreas Mohr
