Yeah, the discussion settled down just as the merge window openend,
and this isn't high risk, so in retrospect I should have pushed
it into 2.6.32.

I'll push the documentation update to 2.6.32.

I'll push the tweaks to 2.6.33.
I don't expec that this will need to be back-ported
as only advanced users who also have this BIOS bug will be messing
around setting their own custom passive trip point in the first place.

thanks,
