I'm not sure why you are pulling from kernel.org and integrating into
the srpm as that is what happens anyway.

You mention in comment #31 of that bug that you updated and this
caused the problem to exist on both f12 and f13 kernels. I'd be
inclined to visit your yum log and see what was updated and revert it,
if you are able. It may not even be kernel-related.

You might also want to consider taking this to fedora-kernel as the
kernel developers are less likely to read this list due to the volume.
You don't have to subscribe.
