The hdaps patch included in tp_smapi [1] should fix this. Grab
tp_smapi and run  "make install HDAPS=1; rmmod hdaps; modprobe hdaps
force=1".

To avoid the "force=1" you'll need to patch the whilelist or to apply
one of the recent extended-whilelist patches posted to the hdaps-devel
list.

Please report if it works.
