Comment 36 for bug 183456

Hi Thomas,

You've previously said that the kernel hackers aren't overly willing to put in a proper fix for this issue. I don't see an entry for this bug in the Linux kernel bugzilla, however (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/), so it's possible they aren't even aware of it.

Regardless of whether or not it is likely to be followed up, it would be good to have an upstream bug report linked to this one, and you've clearly demonstrated your grasp of what the problem is and what the fix needs to be. Would you have a few moments to file a bug with the upstream, and link it here?
