[Siddu <1093217@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The patched dsdt is actually not guaranteed to work. I've had instances
where it didn't. That patch attempts to fix what's seems to be a race
condition by adding a delay to the relevant function. But with all timing
workarounds, it won't always work. The kernel patch will always work,
because battery support simply isn't available until late in the boot
process, where it can't do any harm.

Title:
  8086:0166 [Lenovo IdeaPad Z580] 12.04-13.10 10-20min boot delay (From
  3.2.0.29->3.12-rc2)

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Unknown
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On updating the kernel from 3.2.0.29 to any later version (3.2.0.30)
  and above, Ubuntu will not boot. I see a blank screen with a cursor
  but nothing happens after that.

  Trying to boot into recovery mode is not useful either.

  Booting into an older version of the kernel (3.2.0.29) is successful.

  I have seen this issue with all kernels after 3.2.0.29 till date :
  3.2.0.31, 3.2.0.32, 3.2.0.33, 3.2.0.34, 3.2.0.35
