The LKML discussion was along the lines I anticipated: evidently different subsets of machines crash with and without the patch, leaving the poor kernel maintainers with a dilemma. Clearly a more complex if condition is called for, if only what it needs to be can be worked out. I presume it's related to either hardware or BIOS bugs and/or quirks.
