I'm wondering if it would be possible for us to patch out the sections of the driver which write to the NVRAM, assuming Intel are not able to make suitable changes before 2.6.27 is released, which prevent this from being possible (e.g. splitting the writing parts out into a separate module which is not loaded by default?)
