Note these patches have been accepted upstream, pull-req to Linus including them is here. This includes a cc to stable@ so they should make their way into a 3.7.x release eventually.

As said before, since we've heavily advertised our support for these devices I believe we should fix this in the Fedora kernels rather then waiting for the patch to trickle down.

Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2013-01-22 10:20:40 UTC
Note this has been picked up in the stable series and is in 3.7.3, which is available for F-17 but not for F-18 ??  Note according to: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/kernel

Once we have 3.7.3+ available for F-18 this can be closed.

Comment 5 Josh Boyer 2013-01-22 14:05:06 UTC
The 3.7.2-204 F18 kernel has most of the stable patches for 3.7.3 included in it already, including the 2 patches you have here.  In Fedora git, F18 is on 3.7.4 now.  We can close this out.
