Well, I certainly prefer not to, simply because you might as well send
them to linux-kernel and get it resolved that way by some random person
who just happens to be awake.
It looks like
- an ACPI configuration bug, where CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP is allowed even
though CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is not enabled.
- keyboard.c and parts of VT not depending on CONFIG_INPUT
- device mapper using vcalloc() even though no such function has ever
existed in the kernel (it's vmalloc + memset()).
and I think the only way to fix these things is to publicly shame
maintainers into fixing the stuff they maintain.
