Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker. Top-posting for once,
to make this easily accessible to everyone.

Johannes, sorry to bother you, but I have to ask what's up there? Has
there any progress been made wrt to below regression? I'm wondering, as
I forwarded this ten days ago and haven't seen a single reply, but maybe
I missed something.

BTW, in between a second user who's affected by the regression showed up
in the bugzilla ticket.

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

P.S.: As the Linux kernel's regression tracker I deal with a lot of
reports and sometimes miss something important when writing mails like
this. If that's the case here, don't hesitate to tell me in a public
reply, it's in everyone's interest to set the public record straight.
