Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker. Top-posting
for once, to make this easily accessible to everyone.

Konstantin, what's the status of this regression report or the patch Dom
Cobley propsed to fix the issue? From here it looks like it fall through
the cracks, but I might be missing something.

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