Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking.

thx for getting regzbot involved, much appreciated!

@bt-maintaners, what's the status here? Paul reported that over ten days
ago and there wasn't a single reply. Or did the discussion move
somewhere else?

@Paul: just wondering, did you give 5.17-rc1 a try? Might be worth a
shot, if only to confirm the issue is still present.

Ciao, Thorsten
