Yes, it seems to resolve the issues seen on T430, T530, and Intel 
Ivybridge mobile SDP. It likely fixes others, as the Intel mobile SDP is 
the reference platform for all the OEMs.
If I need to re-submit this patch for any other reason, I will be sure 
to mention this in the comment.
That said - there seems to still be an issue on some older Sandy Bridge 
machines, like a Lenovo T520, and X220 - but I don't yet know if it is 
related.
