If the patch you're refering to the keyboard related patch, no it hasn't.

Someone that experiences the problem needs to take the patch that is
floating around and make it commitable.  This means rather than cutting
out the code that the patch does, it is wrapped around a loader tunable
so it only gets turned off on these laptops.

Or someone needs to go read the code and explain why removing that
section makes a difference (ie, understand what is really going on), and
make an argument that removing that code is OK for the rest of the world
that isn't experiencing the problem.
