Cir. 2009)  (“Although predictability is a touchstone of obviousness, the ‘predictable result’ discussed in KSR [KSR Intern. Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398 (2007)] refers not only to the expectation that prior art elements are capable of being physically combined, but also that the combination would have worked for its intended purpose.”);
