as for the fix, the fix does work correctly. I tested this on the laptop affected by it by applying the patch manually.
With the note that the first fix that was posted by Alex did had a typo in it (a small but crucial one)
the correct patch was posted on dri-devel and applied to Dave's branch on git.kernel.org.
I have seen Linus also has picked up the patch in the current git, though not in the latest released -rc.
Tormod, good thing to subscribe me to the bug :)
