OK... so far so good. Still had the trackpad go nuts (that is usually the first indication. Trackpad goes wonky, I have to remove psmouse and then the atkbd messages start appearing along with weird keyboard activity.

This kernel has felt (subjectively) more stable so far.
bladernr@klaatu:~/development/merge-client-whitelists-2$ uptime
 17:43:27 up 1 day, 4:32, 1 user, load average: 0.24, 0.37, 0.34

after that time, so far, the atkbd messages have appeared, however, there have been very few and thus far the system hasn't spiraled off into the weeds. The first instance:
[ 4630.670657] sdhci-pci 0000:09:07.1: Will use DMA mode even though HW doesn't fully claim to support it.
[71711.611959] atkbd serio0: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xe0 on isa0060/serio0).
[71711.611968] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e060 <keycode>' to make it known.

and there have only been 5 messages so far. I'll continue running this one without rebooting to see what happens.
