This is the correct commit, right?:

It looks to me like there are a lot more than just ARM changes there, but I don't know anything about kernel development so I might not be . I'm surprised to see so many changes committed all at once.

Is there any way to narrow down which change is causing the regression?

From skimming the changes, one thing that stands out to me was a change to the intel microcode, only because when my computer started having problems initially I had ran into one or more other bugs related to the microcode and I had to upgrade my BIOS to get the latest microcode working:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1759920

... but I'm honestly not sure if any of that was related or just a timing coincidence.

Thanks!
