Yeah, we're doing VM based testing more often than bare metal -- less so on a AWS scale. That's why we observed it first in VMs. But that wasn't meant to exclude bare metal, not at all. It's just, that we haven't tried hard enough yet and testing VMs is so much more pleasant when it comes to debugging boot issues ;) Thanks, Mathias > IMHO, I'd suggest we revert this for now from Linus tree and stable trees. > We can help testing for the fix maybe for the next merge window. > > - Luiz >
