There are two things we are currently tracking. One of them was merged
which seems to have made my machine stable at least and fixes a problem
related to the MMC. The second one we may need is a power related changed
to SPI to hold the CPU in C0/C1 whenever the ACPI _SEM is held.

Graphics shows these problems up because of the way the GPU causes power
state changes.
