0) Applies cleanly to v3.6.7. Compiles cleanly too. No oops after the
(second or later) removal of lpc_ich. So this patch seems to do the
trick.

1) Could you please send this patch to stable too (when it finally hits
mainline, that is)? A quick glance suggests it can be backported to as
far v3.0 (but I only tested v3.6.y, see above).

Thanks,


Paul Bolle
