Linux 4.13: Reported regressions as of Sunday, 2017-07-30

Hi! Find below my first regression report for Linux 4.13. It lists 8
regressions I'm currently aware of (a few others I had on my list got
fixed in the past few days). You can also find it at
http://bit.ly/lnxregrep413 where I try to update it every now and then.

As always: Are you aware of any other regressions? Then please let me
know. For details see http://bit.ly/lnxregtrackid
And please tell me if there is anything in the report that shouldn't be
there.

Ciao, Thorsten

P.S.: Thx to all those that CCed me on regression reports or provided
other input, it makes compiling these reports a whole lot easier!
