The patch titled hwmon: applesmc: prolong status wait has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was hwmon-applesmc-prolong-status-wait.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: hwmon: applesmc: prolong status wait From: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@xxxxxxxxxxx> The time to wait for a status change while reading or writing to the SMC ports is a balance between read reliability and system performance. The current setting yields rougly three errors in a thousand when simultaneously reading three different temperature values on a Macbook Air. This patch increases the setting to a value yielding roughly one error in ten thousand, with no noticable system performance degradation.
