From: Greg KH <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
commit 88ca518b0bb4161e5f20f8a1d9cc477cae294e54 upstream.
intel_ips driver spews the warning message "ME failed to update for more than 1s, likely hung" at each second endlessly on HP ProBook laptops with IronLake.
As this has never worked, better to blacklist the driver for now.
