Hi all,

I was looking at the bug "Kernel panic when turning off screen backlight using 
laptop Fn key":

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748210

The oops is caused by the null pointer dereference in the module 
ideapad-laptop.c and it affects, as the name says, almost all Lenovo Ideapad 
laptops/netbooks.

It is a regression in the kernel 3.1 and a patch is available here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/19/485
http://www.mail-archive.com/platform-driver-x86@vger.kernel.org/msg02343.html

The Fedora's package kernel-3.1.0-7.fc16.src.rpm is not patched.

Would it be possible to include the patch in the final F16?

Regards

Vaclav M.
