The bug would have caused the kernel to allow enabling of "nap" mode when idle on machines where this is buggy and can cause loss of cache coherency among others. I really don't remember off hand which specific machines may or may not have been affected. But I'd like at least people to verify that my patches to "fix" that aren't causing a regression for people like you who don't seem to have problems :-) The bug was introduced a while back in 2005.
