I'm aware of that “big hammer” patch from the upstream bug.  The problem
is that it's not a fix - reports on the upstream bug indicate that it
reduces the incidence of crashes, and the analysis by upstream is that
it simply introduces a delay which makes it less likely to trigger the
problem.

It was decided that as this was not going to be sufficient we wouldn't
pursue this patch for Lucid.  We'll be looking at pulling Daniel
Vetter's fix into a PPA kernel at some point, and given sufficient
testing it *might*  be an SRU for 10.04.
