He can you a send patch tomorrow so you can test if it also fixes your
problem.

Tony, Jesse, I have to wonder: why is it taken so long to get this
regression fixed? The regression was reported 69 days ago and the first
patches to fix this went out 40 days ago. That's far from ideal.

Hi Thorsten,

Our validation found issues when testing the original fix which caused the delays as the new issues were being worked out.

Reminder: this regression ideally should have been fixed within two
weeks after the report, as explained here:
https://docs.kernel.org/process/handling-regressions.html

FWIW, in case anyone wonders: the latest patch-series to fix this can be
found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/intel-wired-lan/1660310750-290943-1-git-send-email-grzegorz.siwik@xxxxxxxxx/

I was going to point you to the newest patches, but you located them. Our validation finished testing them yesterday so the pull request for these will be going out to netdev today.

Thanks,
Tony
