Sorry,

Didn't seem to help.

I unloaded my old tp_smapi (from /lib/module), patched your the tp_smapi
tree, make, sudo make load...

but upon spin-polling dump, I have an EC hang that occurs about as fast as
before.

Sorry about the late reply.  Let me know if there's more to do.  Also, I
noticed that you and Henrique send E-mails to me personally in addition to
responses to the list.  If you would prefer to take this outside the list,
we can.
