I fetched the latest 3.14.y from linux-stable at git.kernel.org and saw no
further changes to this driver, nor anything relevant on the 3.18.y branch
(git log on affected file). I haven't looked outside the stable source tree.

I have assumed that a fix would touch the driver itself. I do not know what
a proper fix would actually look like - presumably my workaround would
break whatever the changeset was fixing for those using the TSC part of the
driver, much the way their fix broke my use of the driver.

bugzilla.kernel.org states that it is for submitting issues with mainline
rather than distribution kernels. Would they consider linux-yocto a
distribution kernel, and I should leave this with you?

Regards,
Yani.
