I don't think the Android use case counts as a regression.

If they'd use an unmodified upstream kernel, it would be a different case.

But they modify the kernel heavily, and AFAICS this breakage is
related to such a modification (as pointed out by Bernd upthread).

André might want to clarify, but I've not seen any concrete real world
examples of regressions caused by this change outside of Android.

Thanks,
Miklos
