Thx for this, that's how it got on the radar of regzbot, my Linux kernel
regression tracking bot:

Afaics nothing happened since then. Or did I miss anything? How can we
get the ball rolling again?

Stanislaw, is there anything Exuvo (who offered to help afaics) could
test to get us closer to a fix?

Ciao, Thorsten

P.S.: I have no personal interest in this issue and watch it using
regzbot. Hence, feel free to exclude me on further messages in this
thread after the first reply, as I'm only posting this mail to hopefully
get a status update and things rolling again.
