Since no one else bothered to refresh the patch I did it myself:

diff --git a/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c b/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c

 	raw_spin_unlock(&tick_broadcast_lock);

Unfortunately it doesn't do anything for me.

The fortunate thing is that acpi-idle has magically been fixed in the
meantime, so I can at least go back to using that one and have working
S3.
