The patch makes sense. You don't need to poll every jiffie to find
out if system has panic. But I agree with Linus, it is the kind

don't belong in the wild.
Stephen,
The drivers blinks LEDs when kernel operates normally. During panic
the panic_blink() routine in i8042 gets called directly, without
involving the blink driver.
