I don't know if you remember this bug, but I have reports from two users who see "error -84"s on :e823 controllers even with this patch active on modern ThinkPads. Maybe 50MHz isn't low enough sometimes? Is it possible to lower the base clock further? I noticed that the frequency is encoded ine one of the PCI writes: + * 0x32 - 50Mhz new clock frequency So if I get access to one of these systems, I might try lowering that value (by half, say) and see what happens. But at the moment I haven't found someone who's willing to try kernel patches yet, and I don't have one of these systems myself.
