Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker. Sorry, I'm behind mail.

FWIW, that is 4abff6d48dbc in mainline

Was there any progress to get down to this? Peter, who authored
4abff6d48dbc, is not even CCed yet to this thread yet afaics.
BTW, 5.17 will likely be EOL in a week or two. Thomas, maybe it might be
the best to give 5.19-rc1 a shot and in case the regression is still
there start a new thread about this that focuses on the regression in
mainline. That makes things less confusing and the regression needs to
be fixed in mainline first anyway before it can be fixed in the stable
trees.
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.
