I can verify the fix in groovy.

It depends on which kernel you are talking about. The bionic GA kernel
(4.15) was not affected based on my testing. If you are seeing problems
with it, please let me know.
The bionic HWE kernel is derived from the kernel source in focal, so
that kernel does not need to be fixed separately from the focal kernel.
