Whatever "it" is sure broke mine though... the one that's
currently on my lap!  :)


Running right now with a patch reverting the update which
made trouble on Linus' machine, but without Alexey's two
tweaks to the EC interrupt handler.  So far so good, even
after doing things which had previously caused AE_TIME
errors pretty quickly.  But then, the errors weren't what
I'd call reproducible either.

Linus' explanation of what went wrong looks compatible with
the symptoms I've seen, FWIW.
