It largely went quiet because I didn't raise the issue in the mailing
list again. I pinged back in February (
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/CAJ7-PMbujee92N1f9xVF8vtXgS49qpe7qHkeWh1Z0R-Rk-Jkaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
) but the conversation died out and I was content to simply use the
last working kernel version and see if the bug was resolved on its own.
I raised the issue again on the bugtracker a few days ago, leading to
this follow up here. :)
