Hi Jonathan,

Finally I got around to test this patch. While the system if fine for office 
work, cloning linux.git or compiling kernels takes hours.

Done with testing, results below. These instructions were really good and easy 
to use, thanks for that!

I compiled 3.2.28, and it reproduces the bug within the first minute after boot 
and the logs are full of the error message.

The patch fixes the problem. I've run more than 30 minutes without a single 
occurrence of the error message in the logs. Everything I tested seems to be 
still working, Graphics, Suspend, etc.
