the causing commit has been identified. After reverting commit https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4cd13c21b207e80ddb1144c576500098f2d5f882 its working again.Just replying to me won't magically fix this. The ones that were involved on this patch should also be c/c, plus USB people. Just added them.Actually, you seem to have added an odd subset of the people involved. For example, Ingo - who actually committed that patch - wasn't on the cc. I do think we need to simply revert that patch. It's very simple: it has been reported to lead to actual problems for people, and we don't fix one problem and then say "well, it fixed something else" when something breaks. When something breaks, we either unbreak it, or we revert the change that caused the breakage. It's really that simple. That's what "no regressions" means. We don't accept changes that cause regressions. This one did.
Yeah, absolutely - for the revert: Acked-by: Ingo Molnar [off-list ref] as I doubt we have enough time to root-case this properly. Thanks, Ingo
