This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nvme: add a quirk to disable namespace identifiers to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nvme-add-a-quirk-to-disable-namespace-identifiers.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 4f3ce049d41b6543c0de4dbc62744f7beb70e6ca Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Date: Mon Apr 11 08:05:27 2022 +0200 nvme: add a quirk to disable namespace identifiers [ Upstream commit 00ff400e6deee00f7b15e200205b2708b63b8cf6 ] Add a quirk to disable using and exporting namespace identifiers for controllers where they are broken beyond repair. The most directly visible problem with non-unique namespace identifiers is that they break the /dev/disk/by-id/ links, with the link for a supposedly unique identifier now pointing to one of multiple possible namespaces that share the same ID, and a somewhat random selection of which one actually shows up.
