This issue just recently started, 2.6.25-rc9 and below don't give meYes, the problem which we are fighting here is that almost all Acer notebooks come with
this message.
broken EC. It sends interrupts not regarding the fact that we already ACKed it.
It comes unnoticed on almost all machines (some notice laggy keyboard, because it's the same controller after all and it's busy with sending ACPI interrupts and then providing same status byte over and over), but on some machines keystrokes become missing, which is not tolerable (#9998).

a) use dmi blacklist for acers?
orThere are no reports about broken machines for 2.6.26-rc5 beside #10724,
b) if EC storm is detected print message telling 'please pass
ec_polled=true if you experience keyboard problems', but do nothing
else?
