Can't honestly say - I'm not following any other user forum than linux-m68k
(and that's not really a user forum either).

years for the breakage to be spotted... In all fairness, it was pretty
horribly broken before the change too (like waiting in request_fn, under
a lock).

In all fairness, it was a pretty broken design, but it did at least work. I
concede that it was unmaintainable in its old form, and still largely is,
just surprised that I didn't see a call for testing on linux-m68k,
considering the committer realized it probably wouldn't work.

I recall cc'ing some people that I hoped could point me at the right
place to test this, but I don't think I was aware of the linux-m68k
mailing list.
