It looks like this requires a user to figure out that he might be suffering from this problem, then use this module parameter to work around it. How would a user figure that out? Can we do it automatically to save him the trouble?

It´s easy to dmi_match() known broken systems - I have dmidecode outputs of four systems that definitely need the patch.
Two ASUSTek P5* mainboards with AMI BIOSes, two AOpen i915G* mainboards with Award/Phoenix BIOSes.
