I wondered what happened to this regression fix, as things looks stalled from here -- but maybe I'm missing something.

Robin, did you take care of that? Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat) P.S.: As the Linux kernel's regression tracker I deal with a lot of reports and sometimes miss something important when writing mails like this. If that's the case here, don't hesitate to tell me in a public reply, it's in everyone's interest to set the public record straight. #regzbot ignore-activity
