[Bug 538648] Re: [Intel GM45] Irregular sync flashes on 8086:2a42 (Needs i915.powersave quirk)

[Max Jonas Werner]

This bug is absolutely annoying and implicitly also a security issue
since I'm using apw's kernel mentioned as a workaround, so I'm not able
to fetch security updates to the kernel. (workaround no. 2 is not an
option since battery life is important to me.)

Is there a good reason for not including the patches from apw's kernel
into the official ubuntu kernels to make the flicker disappear?
