Thanks for the insight Chuck. I will give it a bit more time as you suggest; I will ask if the arch devs can pull in the fix to their kernel in the meantime. I didn't see anyone making "backport fixes" requests in the stable list archive recently, so it doesn't seem to be the norm, but I don't see any other methods. - mike On Thu, Sep 16, 2021 at 11:58 AM Chuck Lever III <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > On Sep 15, 2021, at 10:45 PM, Mike Javorski <mike.javorski@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > Chuck: > > > > I see that the patch was merged to Linus' branch, but there have been > > 2 stable patch releases since and the patch hasn't been pulled in. > > The v5.15 merge window just closed on Monday.
