flat view
STALE2035d LANDED

From: Jiri Slaby <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-02 08:24:39
Also in: dri-devel, linux-serial, lkml
Subsystem: console subsystem, framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

Landed in mainline as 5a3c96e96409 on 2021-03-10.

Long time ago, I figured out what this number is good for and documented
that locally. But never submitted, so do it now.
