It's up Heiko to decide whether to drop this patch or not. Hmm, interesting question ;-) . Dropping the patch is of course still possible and so far we haven't actually seen anyone with real-world problems. And with Jonas' stress test, it does look like nobody will in the (hopefully short) time till we have thermal management. @Dragan, if you're in favor of that I'll drop the patch.
