Dear Joshua,

I built a Xenial test kernel with the V2 patch.

Please test the kernel and let us know your results. If we can receive positive test feedback by December 18, we can proceed to submit the patches for kernel SRU review in an attempt to make the upcoming kernel SRU cycle starting on December 20th. Assuming the patches are accepted for SRU and land in the upcoming SRU cycle, the fix should be available from the -updates pocket by January 9th.

The Xenial test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1519897/xenial

This kernel will cover both Xenial and Wily testing. Vivid and Trusty will need some backporting of the patch, so separate test kernels will be posted for them.
