I'm affected too: ThinkPad X200 and X220 w/ Ubuntu 12.04.

In fact this is a kernel bug and there already is a patch in mainline: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=ff413195e830541afeae469fc866ecd0319abd7e

I can confirm that the patch works for me an some more Thinkpad users when applied to the current Precise kernel 3.2.0-27.43 and I *strongly* suggest to integrate this patch in the Precise kernel.

Kernel packages including this patch can be found in my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~linrunner/+archive/thinkpad-extras
