The bug being discussed here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3926081/ is present in the current poky linux-yocto_3.10 recipe. In speaking with Nitin K on irc, he indicated that the v3.10 kernel recipes in poky need srcrev updates to get this fix from v3.10.35 LTSI.
Sorry for the vagueness on this; I'm not terribly clear on the Yocto kernel mechanisms.
Thanks Drew. I've updated the subject and assigned back to Nitin. We don't typically track these via BZ as it's easy enough just to send a two line patch usually - but if it's been lagging (as people are swamped currently) this is a reasonable way to track it.
I would like to clarify this issue is for not meta-intel, It is for the SRCREVS in the poky. To be specific in these files: meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.10.bb meta-yocto-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.10.bbappend Bruce does validation with different platforms for such changes. so I will pass the bug to Bruce.
Drew, BTW, you can use the new intel-core2-32 or intel-corei7-64 BSP from meta-intel layer, which already has the fix you need. Nitin
Yes. Please no bugs for -stable updates. They are a matter of procedure and are always a task that gets done at the appropriate time. As for right now, I already have all the -stable updates staged, but I'm not pushing anything to Richard since we can't take *any* unexpected breakage since we are close to the release. I'll have a full slate of -stable updates once 1.6 releases.
Let me back up a bit. My original question was to determine if there was any chance this bug fix would make it in time for 1.6. Sounds like that's not going to happen correct? If so I'll put it in my local layer.
If you are only interested in the one change as a priority, I've had it in the linux-yocto-3.10 tree for quite some time. commit 8d4d5975e5921a2f405f53211d1a27acab9bba56 Author: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Date: Tue Jan 21 09:52:39 2014 +0200 mmc: sdhci-pci: Fix possibility of chip->fixes being null It is possible for chip->fixes to be null. Check before dereferencing it. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.11+ Signed-off-by: Chris Ball <chris@printf.net>
The -stable updates may still make 1.6, I'm just waiting for the all clear from Richard before sending more churn.

Verified, emenlow boots as we expected.
