Hi Linus, is possible plan something to make faster and easier the way
to loking for a specific bug?

E.g:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/110784>

In this bug, I think that it appear after ~2.6.22, so is necessary do a
git-bisect more than 13 times!

I need more than 20min to compile each kernel, so is necessary ~260min.

My wife will kill me if I says: Hey baby, wait 260min to me compile a
lot of kernel here.

Best regards,
Renato
