I've put together a linux-4.9.y branch at

Are there any plans for a backport to v4.4?

I would volunteer for testing ;)

Care to volunteer to do the backport?  :)

Why do you need/want this type of thing for 4.4.y?  What is keeping you
from moving to 4.9.y instead?  Or even better yet, 4.14.y or 4.15, where
everything is fixed "correctly"?


Puhh, I would love to do the backport but I had a quick look at the patch
series and that is beyond my scope, I'm afraid. I'm a tester ;)

If there are no plans I know I have to move to a newer kernel, sadly.
