But I write for a different reason: this seems to become a regression that is annoying quite a few people (in 6.5 and 6.4.y afaics), so it would be good to get the fix merged to mainline rather sooner than later. Are these warnings and the mentioning of affected machines in the patch descriptions the only remaining problems, or is there anything else that needs to be addressed?
