Hi Alan,
That patch is old news already...
There is a new shiny one appended to 9998/10724/11549...
Please give it a try. It does disable GPE, but for very small duration.
Regards,
Alex.

Sounds sensible. Hopefully we're right that most systems with these
broken EC's don't want the workaround. I assume you will still notify
the user automatically, something like "acpi: ec: GPE storm detected,
try booting with ec=poll".
My apologies. I seem to have tested this but neglected to reply :-(.
I've been running with this for a week or so now. I've been bashing the
hotkeys (and holding down the ones with autorepeat), and it works fine.
Plus I get the message in the kernel log suggesting ec_intr=0 if the
keyboard doesn't work. It's all good.
Thanks
Alan
