Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking

Seems below issue is one that got stranded in bugzilla, so I'm adding
everyone involved to the CC list of this mail now and hope this gets the
ball running.

If anyone wonders why I didn't do that when writing below mail, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/3ee8c6c9-52d1-9570-f3bf-490365c9f6fe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)

P.S.: As the Linux kernel's regression tracker I'm getting a lot of
reports on my table. I can only look briefly into most of them and lack
knowledge about most of the areas they concern. I thus unfortunately
will sometimes get things wrong or miss something important. I hope
that's not the case here; if you think it is, don't hesitate to tell me
in a public reply, it's in everyone's interest to set the public record
straight.
