Patch added on top of 3.12.0-0.rc3.git0.1.fc20.x86_64 and built. But after ~dozen reboots, I'm not triggering the problem. The only items in dmesg with smc in it:

[ 13.799819] applesmc: key=261 fan=2 temp=14 index=14 acc=1 lux=2 kbd=1
[ 13.833402] input: applesmc as /devices/platform/applesmc.768/input/input10
