It's been a week since this testing request has been made.
So far:
- we pushed that on Fedora 22/rawhide since last Thu, no bad reports since
- our internal IT tested the series on a X250 and W541 with good results
- I recieved other reports from X250 IIRC, no problems so far

I guess it's time to merge this branch in your "next" branch at least.

Cheers,
Benjamin
