As of right now, there is no patch. Period.

Our system is a 997/800 with 8Gb of memory running 7.5 with a few reactives in
place. As this is a generalized MI bug I would suspect it is generic to at
least the 997 series and perhaps more widespread.

Okay. This is a call to Open MPE. When you look at your CPU queue metrics do you
see the nice low values that you are used to seeing or did you enter the Rocky
Mountains when you installed 7.5? What class of box are you running and model?
