Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking.
Top-posting for once, to make this easy accessible to everyone.
Could the bluetooth maintainers please provide a status update? I wonder
if it's time to bring this regression to Linus attention, as it seems to
be an issue that hits quite a few users -- and at the same takes quite a
long time to get fixed for a issue where a patch with a workaround was
already proposed one and a half months ago.
Ciao, Thorsten
