First off, stable kernel questions should go to stable@...r.kernel.org,
not just to me.

Secondly, I don't understand what you are asking here.  What exact fix
in Linus's tree do you want to see in a stable backport that I haven't
taken already?  I've queued up a number of ACPI fixes for 3.16.3, are
they not sufficient?

thanks,
