Comment 10 for bug 1626371

I have Thinkpad 13 and and am suffering from this pretty badly, system is almost unusable :(

$ uname -r
4.8.0-26-generic

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.10

These just keep on flooding kern.log:

Can anyone suggest at least a workaround if proper fix does not yet exist?
