Yeah, the discussion settled down just as the merge window openend,
and this isn't high risk, so in retrospect I should have pushed
it into 2.6.32.

I'll push the documentation update to 2.6.32.

I'll push the tweaks to 2.6.33.
I don't expec that this will need to be back-ported
as only advanced users who also have this BIOS bug will be messing
around setting their own custom passive trip point in the first place.

thanks,
Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center
