It would still take a long time before a kernel containing that patch would be available. I don't think that we should wait with the review of this patch series until then. Why would it take long? Sounds like it'd be a small patch, that disables support where it is known to be broken. IMO, that qualifies as -rc material, no need to wait for the next merge window. It'd be good to get it in sooner than later (3.7). -- Pedro Alves
